"Why are a lot of trans people supporters of a philosophy that pushes liberation for the oppressed, with trans people being some of the most marginalized people in the scope of right-wing capitalist society?"
I need help with this one. I don't think I can answer it on my own!
"But tankies transphobia! Checkmate transes!!!"
"Communist leaders in the 60's were somewhat bigoted regarding gender, therefore you and your ideology are too!"
Said the liberal.
Whose current party figurehead is imprisoning people at the border, encouraging police militarization, ignoring every minority group, and openly sponsoring a genocide.
Libs never have an answer for this.
"Oh, you want to elect Boogieman, who will be even worse on culture-war stuff? Won't you think of the trans people*?"
*ignores all the trans people who won't vote for someone with the track record and continued support for extreme policies that have harmed marginalized groups, domestically and abroad, for decades.
It's not like Biden is doing anything to stop the tidal wave of anti-trans bills currently going through in the US anyway, lmao. I will not be made a wedge for libs.
Have you tried spending less on plushies?
Blåhaj is necessary for survival. If it's between food and blåhaj, you have to go hungry
Let's not forget that communists also have the absolute best track record of killing nazis 
Nazis erased Magnus Hirschfield and the gang, and communists extended us a great act of allyship by killing every nazi they could find on their way to berlin 
I was already a communist before my egg cracked, but if I wasn't I would probably would become one pretty fast.
I can't get gender-affirming care through the public system because I'm poor, and I can't afford going private because I'm poor. Importing estrogen privately is also illegal here, so the state will literally destroy the medicine you need if you try to buy it from a foreign source above board. The only reason I'm able to get any treatment at all is because of the resources provided by the international trans community, made so me and the countless people in similar positions can get DIY hrt as safely as possible.
I can't imagine many people having a positive impression of their country when that's the reality they live in. And while it's sad when the health system lets you down, it definitely makes you realise how important international solidarity can be.
This is why I hoard my HRT meds even though I don’t need to. If I ever come across a trans person who needs estrogen, I can hook them up so they don’t have to worry about up front expenses. I have something like 9 months of pill Estradiol and 5 months of Spiro (both calculated as beginner doses increasing every 3 months) just sitting in a box for someone that needs it. I’m very aware that I’m lucky that I can afford the care. I know not everyone can.
i want to be able to do this so badly. thank you for your service to the community fr
I wonder what's the best way to make sure it keeps
I believe it's like any other medication. Keep it in a dry environment around standard room temps. What I do, however, is that my wife is still on pill Estrogen, so we FILO with her meds so it keeps the stock fresh so to speak. I don't think any of the pills I have are more than 6 months old and I've been on injections for about 6 months.
That tracks. It turns out the oppressed are fans of revolutionary ideologies that oppose the systems oppressing them.
Almost half of the anarchists I know are queer, and almost all the queer folk I know are some form of socialist
:yea:
It also goes a long way that of the people who don't want you dead the libs are like "we'll tolerate you if and only if you don't cause trouble" and the commie bastards are like "bit weird are ya? that's fine society should accommodate everyone. You can hack that right? then welcome friend"
do you have hrt?
No?
I didn't either but I smuggled diy into my country. If you want I can help you once I'm off work. I know family is also an issue tho, but it's worth trying smth
Not now
