We've bern yelling about it for years and being stubbornly disregarded by useful tools who keep marking down their massive unforced L's as big W's just because they feel smug and smrt, something the enemy learned to exploit reliablyAnd now a massive national ban is imminent and we're still watching trans people engage in the same self-destruction, acting like just denying reality, loudly being confused, and groveling in Democrat-style pursuit of moderate uncontroversial appeasement to make sure they're always surprised by the predictable is some sort of strategy.Watching people respond to Nancy Mace getting exactly what she wants, with Democrats, cops, and news media racing to support her against trans kids by laughing about how foolish she looks once again using her proven tactics to get what she wants.It's really big "afraid people will laugh at them, not kill them" energy, not because death isn't in the cards, but because people refuse to face reality or comprehend even their own lives as anything more than a game about feeling and looking clever.We're watching people decry the double standard of the Cass Review exempting cis kids from all of it, then cheer the French standards that engage in the same double standard. It's a strategy TERFs have been reliably using for years, making the expedient way to get lots of transphobic cislibs to side with Team Trans an agreement that one or more TERF contention is the undisputed consensus, getting feckless trans people to incrementally cede more and more ground.The double standard is the undisputed consensus, everyone agrees none of this should apply to cis kids, the only question is whether to let the legitimately trans binary kids who perform "the opposite sex" correctly through the gate, or just lock the gate entirely. Likewise the Olympics. Everyone endorsed literally MichFest's standards of womanhood and policy of violently excluding trans women, agreeing that it's only wrong when a cis woman is falsely accused and wrongly treated the non-transphobic way everyone agrees trans women deserve on account of not being women.It's not just that, though, there's this increasingly desperate exercise of self-soothing excuses for fascists. Like, that's obviously not what people think they're doing, but it's what they keep doing.The classic, pathetic "b-b-but that will hurt trans people" yeah no shit that's the fucking point.But no, no acknowledgement that anyone actually intends to harm trans people is allowed. Even in articles now speculating on the hypothetical possibility of a worst-case scenario where banning transition care could potentially lead to some suicides, they still insist that Republicans simply don't care if trans people might accidentally be harmed as a side-effect of their efforts to harm trans people.And the Democrat behavior of making a halfway compromise your opening offer, then bargaining yourself downward until surely the other side will agree once you're no longer divisive, polarizing, or controversial. Pretending that the only reason anyone opposes our existence is that they think we're demanding too much, we're being too controversial, so if we just concede every point of contention and then whine like a bunch of fragile crybabies asking why people can't just be nice then surely they'll just be nice.But that's not enough, then they have to turn around and hot dog suit up about "where do they get this idea that trans people are entitled crybabies" they get it from y'all, you refuse to attack the cis binary as false because that would be disruptive, so you turn it into this entitled whining about how you need to always indulge trans people with what we want to be called.Last decade, the mainstream of trans activists in the anglosphere decided their strategy, in a society where the cis binary is violently enforced on everyone from birth and disputing its objective truth is extremely fringe, would be to make the pro-trans position of just keeping the status quo everyone has always known, just like in the 1990s, while "TERFs" are the radical extremists who want to change how things have always been done. It got us here.And people don't even have the fucking decency to acknowledge that maybe if they keep losing, and they never understand why, they suck at this, should stop mindlessly repeating the same nonsense they themselves don't believe, and listen to the people who aren't at all surprised instead of crying about how we're being negative doomers for pissing on your pretensions that helping the enemy is totally doing good activism.All the US allies are gonna be supportively doing conversion therapy in a couple months and the people who spent years telling them this trans stuff doesn't matter are going to pretend to be surprised they believe reminding you it doesn't matter is how to be pro-trans when the Nazis come for you.

Our threats are also simple: We will continue being annoying about it and yelling a lot until our demands are met.
