While we will have discussions on political issues dealing with hate and bigotry AGAINST the LGBTQ+ community, please keep your comments respectful of ail parties.
Be better than how your enemies treat you.
- Respect the trans community
Respect the people who belong here. If you're confused what that means, here's a minor primer:
No asking to date trans people or otherwise meet up with them. No treating being transgender as a mental illness or as being lesser in any way. No arguing with trans people about their identity. No arguing with trans people about their vulnerabilities, including anything related to sports, laws, etc. This includes anything else that the mod team deems disrespectful.

Posts should be related to the defense, advocacy, and restoration of LGBTQ+ rights.
This Community is for news regarding, as well as the discussion of, anti LGBTQ+ laws, hate crimes, and propaganda.
- Bunnies are above the law
This isn't a rule but it shows you're paying attention to the rules. good for you!

From the article:
Show me the stats that suggest that trans women are sexually assaulting women anywhere. It’s not a fucking thing. What a piece of shit. It just goes to show that people drop their support for us as soon as it becomes inconvenient to them. I could count on one hand the people in my life that still support my right to exist.
"Creating a concept"
The most obnoxious thing about idiots is that, being idiots, they also think their cliches are original.
I fucking hate every single person who is abandoning my fellow trans folx right now. Those dipshits clearly are forgetting the rest of what Martin Niemöller’s infamous quote. “Then they came for me-and there was no one left to speak for me”. Hope everyone who is abandoning us get what they fucking deserve
I'm not trans, but it pains me to see people treating other people like subhumans just because they prefer to identify with a gender that doesn't match their sex
Not directly in your life, but you still need to know that you are valid! Coming from someone who is afraid that I will be hearing more of that in the future, we need to stand together. It's sickening. And it shouldn't be this way.
