Yesterdays' horrendous British Supreme Court ruling has succeeded in making life even harder for trans people -
this demonised group seems, as far as I can make out, to want to be treated as human, with no special position in global society other than as individuals allowed to live in peace.
The unrestrained growth of anti- trans feeling shows how easily groups can be targeted for hatred - and this one covered with the thin veneer of 'trying to keep everyone safe' (as said by Earths' biggest little anti-trans muckspreader) who, for legal reasons, shall not be named nor given a gender pronoun and who must have been cackling into their designer cereal this morning.
As alleged to have been said by Taylor Swift, haters be hating,,,,,
I have never understood the need or desire to judge or condemn any particular population. I do understand how some people use fear and hatred to maintain power and control, and "keeping everyone safe" is an old propaganda tool still being used. I hope that humans are able to move forward, but it appears pretty grim these days.
"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime."
