“You’ll be a republican when you’re older when you see your take home pay compared to the salary that was advertised!” Actually no it’s making me double down on the fact that billionaires need more taxes. Would I like to pay less? Of course! But I don’t see the $10k of taxes leave my paycheck (in my state with NO income tax) and think “well, time to defund the EPA and IRS!” I’m just angry that the people who should be paying their share are not.

Trans people have been warning for years that the bans on transition care for young trans people was never going to be the end of it.
Reactionaries used y'all's fear and ignorance around trans children as a wedge to get in and justify banning transition related care for all trans people of any age. This was always the goal, to morally (and legally) mandate trans people out of existence.
And y'all fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Y'all ignored the decades of research proving transition care is safe and effective for trans people of all ages, including trans children, and believed the propaganda claiming doctors were "experimenting" on trans children, because oh this thing is new and scary to me so we gotta stop it until we figure this whole thing out! Fuck you.
I don't want to hear another terf or transphobe justify their "opposition" transition care by saying "oh well I have no problem with adults doing what they want I just don't ~~~experiments~~~ on kids" fuck you, you knew exactly where this was going the whole time don't play dumb. I'm tired of this shit.
Trans people knew it was going to happen and reactionary fascists knew it was going to happen, so what's your excuse?
Happy fucking Pride Month.
