With all the noise going on with this issue, it seems to have missed people's attention that the Fashbook 'guidelines' scope has been expanded from shitting on trans people to now include gay and bi folks as 'others' too.

This on top of allowing misogyny / women being seen as 'chattels' and of course hate against black / brown people.

Don't say that you weren't warned that this would happen. 🤨
You were, but chose not to listen.

Trans people were always just the wedge.

@essjayjay I'll stick out my neck even further:

To the extent that non-trans folks are taken aback about any of this,

that is EXACTLY how much of your allyship you need to repair.

Not listening to the warnings of trans people who see what's a bit further down the road from you is a strategic mistake, and it's based on all of our training to dismiss trans voices as erratic and oversensitive.
