So I got to wake up to this panic-inducing headline today.

Fuck fuck fuck fuck. This is fucking bullshit. This can’t be true. What the fuck.

“Sex means a person’s status as male or female based on immutable biological traits identifiable by or before birth,“ The Times reported the memo said.

TELL ME AGAIN TO MY FACE THAT YOU STAND BY YOUR “MORAL DECISION” NOT TO VOTE DEMOCRAT IN 2016.

“They’re both as bad!” MY FUCKING ASS.

“Sex means a person’s status as male or female based on immutable biological traits identifiable by or before birth,“

*Bitter intersex laughter* You know dick about biology OR gender so get fucked.

did you know that in 1953 eisenhower issued an executive order which banned gay people from being employed in government

and it was specifically to root out lesbians who enjoyed the job security of government work

“To protect their careers, lesbian government workers moderated their behavior to avoid suspicion. They refused to socialize with other lesbians in public, attended social functions with gay men as their ‘dates,’ and carefully chose their wardrobes and makeup to project a feminine persona. Male employees who resented reporting to a female boss could trigger an investigation into her sexuality.” – Robert J Corber “Cold War Femme”

this era was called the lavender scare and was both a direct result of mccarthyism and the classification of homosexuality as a mental illness during ww2. over 10,000 lesbians and gay men lost their jobs and as a result the daughters of bilitis (the first ever lesbian activist group in the u.s.) formed in order to protect themselves and gay men

Important history

and it’s John Kerry’s apology for these events that was removed from the State Department website days after Trump took office

My disdain for cops is institutional, not individual. Just because you may have a positive personal relationship with someone who is a cop doesn’t change the fact that the law enforcement system in this country is rooted in white supremacy and is used to repress and control the working class while protecting the elite.

All cops have signed up to enforce a system which is oppressing marginalized people in this country on a daily basis. Your personal relationship with an agent of oppression does not change this fact.
