Sometimes a visual is nice just to help hammer home just how bad things have gotten in parts of the United States. We’ve got a lot of fighting left to do for trans rights.

It feels odd to see it laid out graphically, the culture wars really are cutting the US up into bits.
I feel so bad for trans people living there now, and also worried that the far right here in Europe is relentlessly trying the same tactics too (though with less success over all, they’ve made headway).
I don’t blame culture wars. I blame conservatism. Conservatism is a plague of oppression, sickness and death. It always has been.
It should be socially acceptable to call out fascism in public. Smiling politely and turning the other cheek is how we ended up with this infestation of conservative hatred.
Culture wars are a direct result of conservatism, so it makes sense to target the tap root, not the leaves.
