Damn. Erasing any mentions of trans people (while leaving "LGB" intact) from a Stonewall monument is so absurd it's almost comedic—the Stonewall riots were very famously centered around trans people and drag performers. Like, when the cops raided the place, they were literally forcing people to strip to perform sex checks! They were trying to arrest people because "cross-dressing" was illegal at the time!
I know the Log Cabin types are still a relative minority, but anyone who thinks these attacks will stop at trans people is deluding themselves. Never mind the fact that so many of these categories overlap, and that bigots rarely care to see the difference. Butch lesbian who wears mens' clothing? Cross-dressing, which to them automatically means you're trans. Straight to jail.

- spondylosaurus 2y ago:( Tbh I have my money on "prison slave labor" more than "death camps," at least for now, but trying to choose between those is like asking if you'd rather get mauled by a lion or a bear. (Love the username, btw. Hench 4 life!)
- Henchman21 2y agoDeath camps are an obvious progression of prison slave labor. Then again, its my understanding that Alabama is already “renting” out convicts for labor. I suspect the sad answer is we’re both right. I’d close with a “Go Team Venture!”, but none of this is very… Hank
