Ask yourself--why would they try to criminalize the only evidence-based interventions to reduce the well-documented, widespread crisis facing trans kids? Doesn't it strike you as odd they make no effort to deny this pain but do make an effort to deny it's solutions?

Maybe they'll make some allusions to conversion therapy, which seeks as its goal the suppression of someone's trans identity. These legislators do not have a vision for trans people's existence in society because they believe our existence is a threat to society.

The political energy behind these bills--the donor class writing them, the propaganda campaigns selling them--would love if mainstream media continued to portray them as a wedge issue, a cynical play for votes. But taken as a whole, it's a national campaign to erase trans people.

This is why it's so frightening that all these states are outlawing protests. Can't get police reform, and now we can't even protest state sanctioned violence against us. This WILL inevitably lead to a second stonewall. If these laws continue unabated, they will kill trans kids

All anti-trans legislation is genocide. It's just a matter of whether they succeed or not.
