the "don't bring iced coffee to an interview" discourse is great bc it's such a succinct and clarifying example of how private businesses aren't efficient & logical enterprises, they're just arbitrary in-groups ruled by sociopaths, power tripping on their ability to enforce pointless bullshit norms

in 2017, a trans reporter was fired at @marketplace.org for writing a blog post abt the need for journalists to resist rising fascism, racism and transphobia. @kairyssdal.bsky.social, the host of the show, said nothing & let his colleague's career be murdered. judge his hr tips accordingingly.

I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

A lot of people seem to be treating this as just ol' wacky Tommy being a silly bigot. This isn't funny though. This is him manufacturing consent for genocide. The Nazis made up insane, nonsensical lies about Jews, too. This is the playbook.

Senator says “furry” pilots are taking over airlines because of trans people: “We’re sitting ducks!” www.lgbtqnation.com/... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA

I want everyone to look at how much effort and MONEY has gone into pushing Democratic transphobia... Vs. how much time and money have been spent trying to persuade candidates not to ve bigots This isn't about winning for the Dems. This is a deliberate, FUNDED, effort by donors to push transphobia.

"Yes, it’s Texas. Yes, Republican nominee Ken Paxton is far, far worse. Yes, Paxton must be prevented from winning the seat. And yes, that means that everyone who can do so should vote for Talarico. Yes, still." www.liberalcurrents.com/talarico-d-i...

The solution is the abolition of conservative activism. No more war against humanity. Recognize social murder as murder. Recognize anti-rights campaigning as, at minimum, conspiracy to deprive people of their rights. All conservatism is simply crime under cover of power and law. Punish it.

Exactly. The best predictor of an organised anti trans movement happening is if gay marriage is legalised. Here in Australia one anti gay marriage org immediately changed to an anti trans one.
