AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>One of the most surreal things about living through the opening phases of a fascist anti-trans pogrom, is getting people around me who aren't trans, and aren't paying close attention to what's going on, to understand that I'm speaking literally. Historically, when an authoritarian state legally denies that a dehumanized, targeted people even exist, it's because they intend to take steps to ensure that they don't. More to the point however, you don't have to be a history student to hear what GOP politicians and fascist propagandists are already saying out loud; they've openly talked about erasing trans people from public life, run Congressional campaigns on promises to make being transgender illegal, and we've even caught their think tank groups having strategy sessions with Republican lawmakers where they confess the end game is using attacks on trans youth to make gender affirming care illegal for everyone. I am not exaggerating or speaking metaphorically when I say the Trump regime ran on, and is enacting a trans eliminationist agenda; even if establishment liberals in the media and politics aren't talking about it because they don't care, don't believe the fascists are serious about doing a pogrom against trans people, or don't think standing up for the human rights of trans people is politically popular. </p><p>Given that the other option is dying in silence as the test case scenario for stripping the human rights of everyone else the regime doesn't like however, a lot of trans people are speaking out about what is going on here, and why even cis people who are currently unaffected by the fascist right's crusade to wipe out trans people need to take this seriously and fight back to protect trans lives. In that vein, I'd like to share this twenty-six minute discussion between The Bitchuation Room's Francesca Fiorentini and Imara Jones of TransLash Media that focuses on the GOP's current legislative assault on trans existence, how cis people are being played by the fascists to justify their own oppression further down the line, and why the attacks on trans rights and trans identities acts a skeleton key for a larger authoritarian agenda.</p><p>The Bitchuation Room: The Right Wants To Make Trans People Illegal </p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlRLBGGe1vc" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=LlRLBGGe1v</span><span class="invisible">c</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/TransRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TransRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AntiTransPogrom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiTransPogrom</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/GOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GOP</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DemocraticParty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DemocraticParty</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/CivilRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Project2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Project2025</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/FrancescaFiorentini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FrancescaFiorentini</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ImaraJones" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ImaraJones</span></a></p>
