Summary
Donald Trump signed an executive order rolling back transgender and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, reversing key measures introduced by Joe Biden.
The new order declares the federal government will recognize only two genders and bans agencies from promoting gender transitions.
Federal documents, prisons, and agencies must comply.
Trump also targeted environmental justice grants and diversity training programs.
Civil rights groups condemned the move, pledging legal challenges.
Yes, you are absolutely engaged in them, which is understandable as you don’t want to shoulder the burden of understanding the role of people who voted like you (or didn’t vote) in Trump’s ascension.
It’s a rotten system, it’s going to produce rotten results
Yup, so best to let the fascists take over.
To be clear, I’m not advocating inaction or hopelessness or anything like that. I’m just expressing the sentiment it’s not realistic for a government designed to represent slaveowners to be reformed into working for everyone.
I’d encourage other trans people to join/start local groups and find whatever community you have where you live.
