“Nihilistic Violent Extremism” as “criminal conduct… in furtherance of political, social, or religious goals that derive primarily from a hatred of society at large and a desire to bring about its collapse by sowing indiscriminate chaos.”
Are… Are these people capable of not projecting who they are onto everyone else?? Projection is in literally everything they do and say.
I mean… I guess that’s a way to encourage trans people and their allies to become nihilistic violent extremists…?
What a time to be alive 🫠
Creating terrorists by rooting out terrorists is an old strategy but this does seem to be novel in sheer stupidity.
Suddenly feeling very trans. I hope all of you are too. Gotta Spartacus this shit.
I agree with the principle (and the general vibe) but I think an awful lot of awful people are already looking for an excuse to claim that trans people are just regular people who spontaneously claim to be trans to make a political point. I don’t think it would help to have concrete evidence of Bob MacMan, who looks and dresses like a man and has been living exclusively as a man and showed clear desire to use men’s facilities and men’s prisons when arrested, has claimed to be a trans woman, or vice versa.
For it to not be counter productive, you would have to commit to proving that trans people are very much not just ‘one gender pretending to be the other’, and that would be difficult.
What might be more effective (and honestly, kinda fun) would be like, 8 people all insisting on being arrested at once, or an entire class, or the whole household including ‘granddad’ Dorothy. With everyone committed to doing the conically low/ high voices and playing up the silliest exaggerated charecature (I thought autocorrect was gonna have my back with that word but hey ho) of the opposite gender. You’d get to have some fun, a much lower risk of being placed alone into an opposite gender space, and could really demonstrate the ‘no, this is what it looks like when people just pretend to be the opposite gender’ difference between claiming trans as an act of political defiance - proving their point- and just happening to be a trans person trying to get on with their lives.
Disclaimer - I am not the Joke Police and do not speak for trans people, so pinch of salt required. Also I haven’t seen Spartacus, but I’ve seen the Life of Brain ‘Im the Messiah and so is my wife’ scene, so I feel like I’ve pretty much watched the important bits of Spartacus
Holy shit. If they really go through with this, it could be the pretence they need to segregate or arrest trans people. This is like the first of the Nazi laws discriminating against Jews. Five alarm fire moment.
As always they’re following the nazi playbook.

If just existing makes you a violent extremist might as well be violent right?
This comment was reported for encouraging violence.
What I think the OP meant was
If they are planning violence on us, we need to be ready to defend and return the same energy back on them
Leaving up.
(the person who reported this comment had the best of intentions, and even apologized if they were wrong – Thanks for that!)

Pass the bricks.
I have never met a trans person I was afraid of. Of course, I don’t feel the need to carry an assault rifle to buy donuts, either.
It must be incredibly stressful to be terrified of everything all the time.
I hate my life. why couldn’t I have just been cis? Life would be so much easier then
Stay strong. We all love you. Fuck the fascists.
I don’t want to have to be strong every single second of my life just to be me. It’s also pretty clear that not everyone loves trans folk judging by how transphobia is increasing worldwide
I’d wager a lot of those who hate transfolk are a lot less sure of their own gender identity and sexuality and the existence of transfolks scares them because it makes them face that fact.
It’s almost always projection of their own insecurities. You’re right, you shouldn’t have to be strong all the time in the face of all these weak willed assholes.
They want you to hate yourself as much as they hate themselves.
You’re worth it homie.
<3. I love you all the more for your dedicated introspection and understanding.
Things may have been easier on the gender front were you cis, but that just means that other things would fill that void - especially considering your empathy in these times of global strife.
The fbi guys are pretty stupid, huh?
That’s what you get when you appoint a fanfic excreter and a fascist podcaster to the top jobs
Wonder if Caitlyn Jenner is going to move out of the country?
This comes from one journalist with two anonymous sources.
Yeah, but that journalist is also Klippenstein. That doesn’t prove it’s true, but he has a very good track record of publishing credible information.
