    Why do you post this here for trans people to see? What will this achieve exactly, outside of making our days a bit worse?

      i did not post this to make anyone’s day worse but i understand that intention does not override impact. i only posted it because as a trans person, i want the community to be informed and aware. i truly am sorry if this activated negative feelings in you and affected your mental health.

      as far as what it can and what i hope it achieves: discourse and rallying against political forces that are not going to go away with our inattention.

        Why not post an article that actually summarizes the whole context of the headline, then? Its never explained or conveyed in relation to the rest of the speech, just given as fact.
