As the U.K. snap elections take place, a British-American trans woman reflects on the painful and lasting impact of the anti-trans movement in the country.
By that logic, all US Citizens are victims of ongoing genocide.
Genocides are a real thing that are really happening to people across the world, you can’t just make it mean something less than it is in good conscience.
Trans people are losing access to healthcare in disproportionate ways, and unless you’re literally the dumbest person alive or have never read a news headline… you know that they are. Your disingenuous denial contributes to the problem. You are contributing to genocide.
That’s you indulging in your fears about cultural change through a straw man, obviously it will disgust you. Luckily it’s not real, so you can focus on other things.
Not being represented != being systematically killed off
It’s not just lack of representation though. The UK is removing trans people’s access to the healthcare that allows them to live a tolerable life.
And that is a very serious issue that I feel deeply for and want to help them overcome it.
But it’s not a fucking genocide.
The government literally covered up the massive leap in suicides since banning trans care for youths.
Bit more than not being represented.
Still not a genocide. That’s not what that word means.
It pretty much is. If you ignore the culture / race part. Eugenics would be a more correct term.
I would even be willing to compromise on the word massacre.
How is lack of healthcare = Not being represented?
You are making a strawman argument, there is much more to it than not being represented.

The comment was “okay cissy”.
Why was this removed?
Because denying genocide is cool and good, and being mean to the people denying your genocide is bad (:
/s cissies will always be snowflakes who are more offended by an insult than an attempt to wipe out trans people

I mean, they keep killing themselves.
If non-existence is preferable to the discomfort, I’d say the need to help them is pretty fucking immediate.
This is my first time ever seeing anyone suggest this exists, let alone ever seeing anyone say that legitimately.
