    Again and again, transphobes prove that their rhetoric of queer and trans people supposedly causing harm to children is nothing more than projection.

    We need to protect kids from conservatives, not from trans folks and drag queens.

    “it is normal to pause and wonder if people are what they say they are because of the push to normalize transgenderism in our society.”

    That’s not normal, that’s fucked up.

    I hope the athlete quickly gets a legal defense fund to look into options to defend herself and/or sue for harassement.

      Great video! For anyone who doesn’t want to watch a half-hour video, the 9 movement-agnostic, “Authoritarian Personality” traits that researchers identified as common among people who had engaged with or expressed support for fascistic ideologies were:

      • Conventionalism: ‘a rigid adherence to conventional, middle-class values’
      • Authoritarian Submission: ‘a submissive, uncritical attitude toward idealised moral authorities of the in-group’
      • Authoritarian Aggression: ‘a tendency to be on the lookout for, and condemn, reject, and punish people who violate conventional values’
      • Anti-intraception: ‘an opposition to the subjective, the imaginative, the tender minded’
      • Stereotypy: ‘the disposition to think in rigid categories’
      • Power and Toughness: ‘a preoccupation with the dominance-submission, strong-weak, leader-follower dimension’
      • Destructiveness and Cynicism: ‘a generalised hostility and a vilification of the human’
      • Projectivity: ‘the projection outwards of unconscious emotional impulses’
      • Sex: ‘an exaggerated concern with sexual “goings-on”’
