I am not One of the Good Trans. I have always said this.
What I mean is: I reject the framing that picks and chooses "acceptable" #trans people, and rejects and invalidates others.

'If a #transgender person vehemently testifies that their transition was voluntary and necessary for their well-being, the state framework allows law enforcement to dismiss their testimony as the product of "undue influence" or "deceit."'

A supermajority of people in the US support trans folks' civil rights.

The sentiment was agreed upon by 92% of Democrats, 76% of Republicans and 87% of independents. The survey was conducted by research firm SSRS and funded by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation."

20% of women "might" regret a sterilization procedure, so the NHS often denies access.
1) The "regret" bogeyman is rolled out for any procedure deviating from social norms. For example, gender affirming care has an almost 0% regret rate, but "regret" is still used to gatekeep care. The rate of regret is not the factor. It is resistance to the idea people can choose not to follow the "norm".
2) People can choose things in life knowing they might regret them. The possibility of regret is part of our freedom. Only the person undergoing the procedure can decide if the risk is acceptable to them.
3) A life with regrets is not a lesser life. A life paternalistically shielded from regret is a diminished life.

Trans people only (particularly interested in Black trans people's opinions): How do we feel about Cyberpunk 2077?
So, reasons I'm interested:
Based on my favorite table top game as a kid
Lead game programmer is a Black man (a rarity in AAA games so I want to support him)
Reasons I'm concerned:
heard it had transphobic vibes
heard they mistreated employees
No real evidence behind the concerns though and not sure if they'd resolved, but the game is now cheaper on GOG 🤔

So #trans people in the #UK can't legally use most public toilets, & can't safely use hospitals.
Gender vigilantes will be empowered. Most of their victims will be non-conforming cis women. There will be violence.
Forget the small print in the new code of practice. #Apartheid is the new reality.
Yes, a case will be brought to the ECtHR. But that takes years, and a victory will be the casus belli for the UK to withdraw from the #ECHR.
Thanks, a bunch #LabourParty. You utter scum.
