There are a bunch of racist hate groups in the US, and they make their stench public all the time. BIPOC communities are the ones predominantly being targeted by ICE. Not only is it being called for, it's happening in real time, and has been happening throughout American history.
How hideous do that have to get before they return to being seen as fringe lunatics? All I can do is continue being visibly happy, citing gender affirming care as saving my life, which I do often.
Detransitioners are put on the world stage! A VERY limited minority being used as puppets. Those who successfully transition need to let others know how beneficial it is!
The campaign being advanced by the president of the The Heritage Foundation and amplified across the far-right internet is not about “protecting children,” “religious liberty,” or “parental rights.”
It is a calculated, incremental strategy designed to erase transgender people from public life by criminalizing their healthcare, stigmatizing their existence, and stripping them of basic civil rights.
Let’s be clear: this is not policy debate. It is coordinated extremism dressed up in legislative language.
The playbook is obvious. First, ban care for minors.
Then intimidate doctors.
Then threaten parents.
Then redefine gender in federal regulations.
Then remove insurance coverage.
Then allow states to prosecute providers.
Then expand restrictions to adults. Each step is framed as “reasonable.” Each step is defended as “limited.”
Each step lays the groundwork for the next.
That is not democracy.
That is authoritarian creep.
Major medical organizations — including the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the American Psychological Association — recognize gender-affirming care as evidence-based and often lifesaving.
The far right’s goal is to override medical consensus with ideology.
hey are substituting political dogma for science and using the machinery of the state to enforce it.
The president of The Heritage Foundation and allied activists are not engaging in good-faith governance.
They are engineering a long game: normalize discrimination, exhaust legal defenses, flood courts, weaponize regulatory agencies, and make access to care so legally risky and financially impossible that it effectively disappears.
That is the definition of incremental prohibition.
And the consequences are deadly.
When care is restricted, suicide attempts increase. When communities are demonized, violence follows.
When the state signals that a minority group is illegitimate, extremists feel emboldened.
History has shown repeatedly where this path leads.
This movement is not defending freedom — it is attacking bodily autonomy, parental rights, medical independence, and the constitutional promise of equal protection.
If the government can outlaw care for one politically targeted group today, it can outlaw reproductive care, HIV treatment, or mental health services tomorrow.
The precedent is the real objective.
Transgender Americans are citizens.
They pay taxes.
They serve in the military. They raise families.
They deserve the same dignity, medical access, and constitutional protection as anyone else. No think tank, no internet mob, and no coordinated legislative campaign has the moral authority to strip that away.
The incremental criminalization of transgender care must be confronted directly — in courts, in legislatures, in elections, and in the streets.
The time to push back is now, before “incremental” becomes irreversible.
Equality is not negotiable.
Human dignity is not subject to partisan strategy. And healthcare is not a weapon for ideological warfare.
When will these far right religious mother fuckers learn that we are not going away and will fight back - We must stand together and Vote out anyone opposed to transgender care
This is infuriating, and I am disgusted beyond description. There are things we can do.
We need to file a class action lawsuit against this man and the Heritage Foundation for wrongful persecution and for being in direct violation of United States Code 18 section 241. This is something that can be taken up immediately, if someone would be willing to begin getting the ball rolling on it.
We need to petition members of Congress, namely Tammy Baldwin, my Senator from Wisconsin. She’s a member of the LGBTQ community and has continued to stand up for trans people. There needs to be legislation put in place to outlaw hate groups such as this. You can make the argument about free speech all you want…when words of expression shift to protocol for oppression, it’s no longer “free”, but requires a group of people to pay a price of continued abuse. They have no problem with hobbling us and our rights. We should have no problem fighting back any way necessary.
I am currently running for United States Congress. If no one will draft the legislation to shut Heritage down, I promise you I absolutely will. Any help you can give to get me to Congress in November is greatly appreciated. I will absolutely go after ALL of these bigot assholes with every bit of energy I possess.
First, *fuck the Heritage Foundation and this guy in particular*, ideally with a rusty knife. That said, without ENDA-style legislation, being trans isn't a right. And even if it were, the Brandenburg test (I am not a lawyer, but I play one in the Internet 🙂) says that just talking about it doesn't count as criminal conspiracy.
I applaud your candidacy, and will send in some $ support, but sadly, I think your arrangement above is exaggerated for now. 😭
I can understand how one could float the argument of me being a bit exaggerated, yes. It could also be said that the ever present existence of anti trans hate speech in the public arena unequivocally perpetuates a hostile environment within our communities and our country for each of us to live. This could make the case for violation of US 18 s. 241. It states that any group of two or more persons can be held accountable and prosecuted for conspiring to take away human rights and freedom to pursue a peaceful, happy life of any citizen of this country.
I’ve been studying this entire trans elimination agenda of the far right radicals for the past year with the specific intent of finding the exploitation points and smashing them to bits with the law and the Constitution.
There’s no reason for this level of hate and malicious intent to exist or go unchallenged , and although some have put some challenges in the path of this wretched hate group’s direction, none have aggressively gone after them. I absolutely will. ✊🏼🏳️⚧️✊🏼
They have been fantasizing about trans genocide for quite a while, and are relentlessly programming the MAGAt base for support. I wish I had more hope that they'll fail. (I go up and down about this.)
Wisconsin, as well as your trans community, could use someone like you in office I wish you well!
Hugs! I’m giving it my best shot to get there! We need a warrior in US Congress…I never would have thought it would be me. We’ve all been waiting for someone to show up, riding a white horse over the hill in the distance to stand up and put these bigots on their heels. I’ve waited long enough, and I’ll get on that horse.
I already get tons of death threats. What are they gonna do, threaten death harder? Lol
When the only thing left to lose is the actual life and lives I mean to defend, threats stop carrying much weight of effect on me. So I go after them by speaking up now and will go after them with the law in Washington. Our lives depend on it and the gamble for what I can lose by fighting is 100% equal to the price they want us to pay if I don’t. They’re gonna need a seat belt. ✊🏼🏳️⚧️
I am tired of the constant effort to make my life miserable. It's exhausting and depressing AF. In any case, I am too wimpy to do it because I don't like physical pain any more than I do the emotional kind.
Oregon has similar laws. I'm not a lawyer (and suspect you aren't either) so we'll have to disagree whether the Brandenburg test would permit what's described above.
To be extraordinarily clear: I'm trans and I didn't like the state of the law. But we should be clear of what those in power think of rights are because they have the power, and there aren't enough of us (+ allies) to revolt.
I've only been saying forever, the people engineering, funding, and carrying out the propaganda campaign and enacting the laws and policies against transgender people must face 42 U.S.C. § 1983, 18 U.S.C. § 241, & 18 U.S.C. § 242 prosecution.
You know the mistake made at the end of the Civil War? This time we have to hang a few handfuls of them, and those three laws among other things provide for that. Ultimately this is all about the Social Conservative side of the Endarkenment, Yarvin's "Dark Enlightenment", the Seven Mountain Mandate, Christian Nationalism -- and the American Revolution was not a mistake and with rise of such as that to the most hallowed marble halls, that Enlightenment revolution being reified is required.
Aye, the gallows will serve to balance the scales of decency once again. But unlike those who installed one outside the capital on January 6th, this one will be installed for the sanctity of law and oppressed people everywhere.
Yes, this! Do we need a DOJ that’s independent of the perps in order for these to work? I know the first one you mentioned is civil, so is anyone pursuing this route?
> You can make the argument about free speech all you want…when words of expression shift to protocol for oppression, it’s no longer “free”, but requires a group of people to pay a price of continued abuse.
The problem is I don't think there's going to be a judge who'll agree with you.
The Heritage Foundation isn’t paying mind to human rights. Forgive me for being so bold as to suggest the actual lives of a marginalized community carry more significance than someone’s freedom to foment hate and be an ever flowing fountain of discriminatory abuse. We have to go as hard as they do with this or it will never end until we’re dead.
I'm not in disagreement in that we should fight for our rights; it's just that we should change the judiciary because they're the final arbiter, so to speak.
I totally agree with you…a really big factor that’s continued to let this sort of disdainful behavior continue toward us is the cooked Supreme Court. They continue to rule on party ideology as opposed to sanctity of morality and absolutely need to be removed for it.
I just sent you a $100 donation. Thank you for what you are doing! I'm the moderator of a trans Discord server and we have some people in the Wisconsin 8th congressional district. Would you like to pop-in and talk to us?
Are you looking for concrete things to do? Let me know (DM or reply).
There are so many actions that one can take and they all make some impact but only through collective and holistic efforts can the sum of those impacts make a difference. All activist orgs have been recruiting people who are willing to help. The best way to help is to get started, and the best way to get started is to volunteer with one or many of them.
We compared them to the NAZIs and were told we are hyperbolic. Now, I'll ask you: How is the statement of the head of an organization firmly tied the current administration any different than what was said by Himmler, Goebbels, Rohm and the mad man himself?
It is as if the death toll is the aim of all the anti-healthcare efforts embraced by the far right, and it is just ridiculous that those that are being eradicated are the ones accused of violence. It is the same with care for trans people, reproductive health, and children’s care.
Enough. WTF is wrong with these people. My life and my decisions about my life affect them not one iota. They are obsessed with us, this is mental. These Nazis have got to go. 😡
This is the same question I want them to answer. Okay, you've outlawed our medication. What next? What's the next tiny incremental step? What about after that?
Right now, no country offers asylum to transgender Americans. But if this came to pass, I'd expect the international community (Canada, Europe especially) to reconsider. It's literally a grave healthcare attack, and a giant step toward genocide of trans people. 😡😡😡
Europe never did. Social Conservatives in Europe did. After Cass published, as Erin Reed pointed out, France, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria all adopted GAC.
People are trying, but it's unlikely they'll succeed. It's bad for trans people here, but not (yet 😭) enough for other countries to recognize us as officially persecuted.
"There does seem to be a mounting body of evidence that suggests a correlation between that surgery at any age, mental health issues, and increasingly, although we're running the numbers on this at Heritage, acts of violence. We have to come to grips with that as a society, in a way that transcends left versus right, because this really is about the human condition"
OK, by that logic we need to ban all single white angry men who tend go on mass shooter rampages. Affluent white men and woman need to be banned for leaning hard into sex trafficking of underage girls. Catholic clergy should be banned because they are likely to sexually abuse underage boys. And so on and so on and... you get the idea how f***king stupid this line of reasoning leads. All this without even leaning into the ranting and raving over immigrants, working class folks, ad nauseum.
Maybe instead we should outlaw organized terrorism under the umbrella of a "heritage foundation". Maybe?
I turn 73 in a few months, which will mark 3 years since coming out. Had I known then what I know now about how life in the USA would change over that span, you bet your tuchus I still woulda come out. This old broad ain’t going nowhere. ✊🏼 Fuck ‘em. ✊🏼
He said it. He said the thing. Kevin Roberts admits that he's committing genocide against us trans people.
There's no way to deny it now.
They're feeling brave enough to say the quiet part out loud, weigh frightens me to my core. I hate what America has become. 😡
The US has always been terrible. We are born from genocide, slavery, and white supremacy.
Absolutely. But in 2026 nobody is publicly crying out for genocide of Black people or aboriginal Americans. That's what we're taking about here.
There are a bunch of racist hate groups in the US, and they make their stench public all the time. BIPOC communities are the ones predominantly being targeted by ICE. Not only is it being called for, it's happening in real time, and has been happening throughout American history.
I beg to differ: Ann Coulter called for the Genocide of Native Americans last year: https://www.ncai.org/news/ncai-condemns-ann-coulter-s-we-didn-t-kill-enough-indians-violent-and-shameful-hate-speech-targeting-tribal-nations
How hideous do that have to get before they return to being seen as fringe lunatics? All I can do is continue being visibly happy, citing gender affirming care as saving my life, which I do often.
That is a good idea. I don't often praise the care I have, I should do that more to make it more obvious for people.
Detransitioners are put on the world stage! A VERY limited minority being used as puppets. Those who successfully transition need to let others know how beneficial it is!
Absolutely horrifying, but also not surprising to see.

Yeah, I am not optimistic. If I knew of a painless way to off myself, I am at the point where I would choose that.
Please don't. You are worth more even if living only to spite them.
I am tired of the constant effort to make my life miserable. It's exhausting and depressing AF. In any case, I am too wimpy to do it because I don't like physical pain any more than I do the emotional kind.
It is a question of timing. Mere words do not a lawsuit make. There will come a time, but it isn’t now.
The law library near me is closed. Can you find a "right to be trans" spelled out in any US or state law?
I don't like it any more than you, but we are not defined in law.
The Bill of Rights - to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness - more than covers it.
IF you also take for granted that people with medical education know more about medicine than religious authorities.

Heritage is all that they have; there is no place in the future for them and they are very aware.
There are, however, trans people in the future and we are more beautiful that they could ever be.
It's going to be a long journey, but history will abhor their regressive tenets.

Maybe we need to become very pro- active
The Heritage Foundation should have been outlawed as a hate organization.
If these assholes think banning gender-affirming care is going to PREVENT violence then they have another thing coming to them.
"... knowing that ultimately we have an ideal position that would be much stronger than that."
I'm sorry what? Stronger than physically taking people's hormones?? What do you mean stronger position?!
I think the answer is pretty clear. Taking away people's hormones is just a temporary solution to the transgender question. Not the final one.
The only things left for them to take would be our liberty and our lives.
This is the same question I want them to answer. Okay, you've outlawed our medication. What next? What's the next tiny incremental step? What about after that?
I want them on record.
Right now, no country offers asylum to transgender Americans. But if this came to pass, I'd expect the international community (Canada, Europe especially) to reconsider. It's literally a grave healthcare attack, and a giant step toward genocide of trans people. 😡😡😡
True, but asylum isn't the only option. For example, you can get residence permit for study or work and then try to get a gray passport.
Europe? The same Europe that praised the Cass report?
Europe never did. Social Conservatives in Europe did. After Cass published, as Erin Reed pointed out, France, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria all adopted GAC.
We seem to be making progress there. I think they are starting to back away from Cass as it has been proven to be BS. https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/02/european-parliament-passes-resolution-that-says-trans-women-are-women/
I thought Norway offered asylum to transgender Americans?
