  1. What’s Happening in #Kansas Should Alarm Us All

    by M. Gessen, August 13, 2026

    Excerpt: "Some of the words or expressions in this article may at first blush seem hyperbolic. One of them is ' #fascism. ' That’s how #SiobhanKirschstein characterized the process when we met in Lawrence, Kan., in July: 'It was #SoftFascism.' It was. Fascism usually begins with redefining the nation by excluding certain groups, which are branded threats to national health and unity. The #Trump administration has fixated on two groups most of all — #immigrants and #TransPeople — in just this way, smearing us (I am a member of both groups) as predatory, sick, at once subhuman and terrifyingly powerful. Even before Donald Trump was elected for the second time, more than half the states had considered or passed legislation limiting the rights of trans people. The process has intensified in the last year and a half, and the law enacted in Kansas in February is one of the most restrictive pieces of anti-trans legislation passed in any state so far."

  10. CW: Discussion of Genocide & Anti-trans legislation

    Latest from "Council of Geeks":

    "In the US there have been nearly 400 bills proposed across the country restricting the lives and rights of LGBTQIA+ people, with a particular focus on trans people. Increasingly the term "Trans Genocide" is appearing, and some may find that term alarmist of hyperbolic. So let's strip it all down to bare facts and try to answer two simple questions: what constitutes a genocide? and does what's happening in the US match that description?"

    One point I do want to clarify is that the UN definition includes "ethnicity"--and that can mean "shared culture"--which does not require genetic relation. I do think the trans community is a subculture in the US, and so I do not see a problem with applying the UN definition of genocide to the trans community in the US.
