Trump is a transphobe Incase your living under a rock and didn’t know.
URGENT 🚨 #trans #mutualaid
Trans Allies where are you? #trans #transrights
#1 Bluesky is transphobic and suspends most trans peoples accounts
#2 Bluesky is more of a white rich people talking for trans people and not giving trans people room to talk
Agreed honey 💯

[Washington, D.C.] – Yesterday, Advocates for Trans Equality (A4TE) Executive Director, Rodrigo Heng-Lehtinen, was quoted out of context in a New York Times story, and he released the following statement:
“Yesterday, New York Times ran an article in which I was quoted as saying, ‘We have to make it OK for someone to change their minds,’ and ‘We cannot vilify them for not being on our side. No one wants to join that team.’ Because my quotes were taken out of context, I’d like to clarify what I meant. Those statements were regarding how to persuade every day, undecided people in the public, not people who have already taken actions to oppose our equality.
“Extreme right politicians targeting the trans community is the reason we’re having this conversation at all. So, I want to ensure that no one misinterprets our message to the community: A4TE’s approach has not changed. We will continue confronting the institutions making the rules and we will be at Capitol Hill and in the courts fighting to change the rules to build power for trans people.
“Trans people doing the best they can to live with respect and dignity are not the enemy. We are angry because extremists would like to ban us from bathrooms and control the decisions we make with our doctors. Make no mistake about who the opposition is here. We’re gearing up for the fight of our lives against the incoming administration, and we are not backing off.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ivb62ux4pkwamrwjjk5l4psj/bafkreib53nrt3taoaydqqxoyl2ex62upayksevvinuxp6gg36n47yfnqsi@jpeg)

A4TE logo on right hand side Text reads: “For nearly a decade, trans advocates have been holding the line against thousands of anti-trans state bills and vile rhetoric to prevent the erosion of hard-fought progress. Now, more than ever, we need to use every tool we have because we cannot afford to cede any ground to anti-equality forces. And we are prepared to confront this period of uncertainty and hardship with the work our community relies upon. “We will fight. We will organize, we will testify, we will march. Trans people have faced political and legal oppression before, and we will look back at our history to guide us on how to move forward. We cannot, however, allow our fear to provoke us to lose our values. Because our values will sustain us. We can only survive what is to come if we hold on to each other and our ability to be decent and kind and just because we are fighting for a future in which trans people are no less than equal.” https://transequality.org/news/a4te-clarifies-mission-response-new-york-times-article
