You'll notice the only party I blamed were the white patriarchy. I'm said I will stand beside you to help you fight for rights. Not blaming.

Trans people make up 1/160th of the population. That's almost 2 orders of magnitude smaller than the POC population.

We do not have the numbers to scale anything close to the civil rights movement. We rely on cis people to stand for us and they failed.

Cis people failed trans people when it was easy and now we have no faith they will show up when it is hard.

White ppl have failed POC for 100+ yrs after the 13th amendment. Still are. We are dying too. I'm prisons, by police, institutional racism.

While I agree with everything you are saying, you are taking a discussion about trans rights and recentering it.

That is not my intent. My intent is to say that civil rights struggles are happening for all of us. But it won't get fixed by absence.

Your intent can be whatever it is but you're still blaming trans people for finding safety.

How about you actually trust our judgment and experience with our own matters and believe us when we say we need to go.

No one is taking that from you. I am saying that if/when you leave, it will be harder to make it safe for you here which is what we all want

No it won't. It's alwayd been and will always be precisely as easy or difficult as cis people make it be.
