Four Trans Women Were Killed or Found Dead This Month Alone

1. These are the conseqeunces, people

These are the consequences of the hate-filled, bigoted bills being pushed in red states - with Texas and Florida and Idaho seemingly leading the way.

These are the consequences of "maybe they don't deserve the same rights" or dismissing calls for equality as "wanting a pony."

These are the consequences of refusing to push back on hate, because "Fighting for this isn't a winning strategy for the Dems."

These are the consequences of "Whatever. You're such a small minority anyway."

These are the consequences of deadnaming, misgendering, and pegging trans people.

When you dehumanize a segment of the population, it only encourages the more hateful and violent of society to think "It's okay to hurt or kill trans people." Not unlike what we saw (and are seeing again) with blacks. Not unlike what we saw done to the Jewish under Hitler.

Words DO hurt.
