          more and more I feel like people who are both transphobic, and also project that on China are really telling on themselves about what they would do if they were in power. It always feels like “you’re lucky our FREEDOM LOVING government lets DEG*NERATES like you exist!” It’s almost more terrifying than the typical right wing blue hair enby boogieman memes.

            I feel like there’s a lot of people along for the ride when it comes to these narratives- like people who will seriously believe some military guy that spent the last two decades airstriking muslim weddings when he says with a straight face that he’s really concerned about the freedom of east Turkistan

      Oh no I never considered that a place I’m critically supportive of might not be perfect. Guess it’s time to throw away all my beliefs and buy NFTs while sucking down whatever the dems are pushing in amerikkka.

      It’s fucking bizarre people keep hammering on this when the US is engaged in, I cannot emphasize this enough, anti-trans genocide as defined in international law. Like bruh. Bruh. Clean up your own house.

      • It’s that brazenness which makes me feel compelled to respond. If you live in the US, claim to be on the left and can’t even call for an end to your own government for its crimes I have no interest in your contributions.
