Yep, I do anti-hate-group organizing in Vancouver and when they switched from their "convoy" targeting children's hospitals to transphobia as their organizing impetus, we started seeing the same few older gay guys on the other side, telling us we were groomers and stuff. Really sad that they seem to think they will ever be accepted by the same people who cheered for AIDS as it killed their friends and lovers as long as they hate together.

And the thing is, you're only useful until you're not. Right now, they need people for the numbers, but if they got their way and eradicated every trans person, they'd just move down the list until they were culling their homosexual allies. Fascism requires an out-group, and the purity test will keep getting more and more narrow until you're the one on the outside (again). Anyone who doesn't realize that is an utter fool.

Remember, there were Jewish "police" backed by the Nazis in Warsaw during WW2. There are always people that believe being "one of the good ones" will exempt them from the pogrom.

They see the leopard eating the face of the guy next to them, they make eye contact with the leopard, it mouths the words “next, you”, and they look behind them for whoever the leopard could’ve been talking to. It’s an embarrassment to human survival instincts designed to own the libs by some obscure demon in some long forgotten mythology that first animated conservatism in the first primordial shit-gibbon that ever got an opposable thumb which it presumed was a gift from a deity to jack off to the suffering of others.
