The Russian president has signed a law banning all trans healthcare, and removes adoption, fostering and marriage rights from trans people.

Article by Pink News reporting on the ratification of a law which essentially outlaws being trans in Russia and deprieves trans people of all support

    Left or right, we all need a group to blame to keep fighting each other. For the left it’s the far right, for the right it’s the far left - in reality most people sit much closer to the centre than the extreme.

    This move to highlight (and aggressively publicise) an anti-Trans agenda is purely to garner more support from conservative parties in the EU & US who are gaining popularity.

      The difference between the far left and far right is that one is in power and is causing active physical harm to people and the other is the far left.

      The right uses minority groups as scapegoats. The left calls them out. These two things are not equivalent and fence sitters in the so called center just enable the far right people in power to continue to cause harm

          Then you’d be an idiot.

          Idk what else to say here, but the far right are in power. They’re pushing immigrant kids looking for a better life into dangerous rivers, they’re destroying the lives of trans people for daring to exist, they’re forcing CSA victims to give birth to SA babies, and numerous other horrific things.

          They’re here and they’re in power. Pretending they’re not just makes you ignorant.

          Hell, one of the far right groups that’s taking over school boards quoted fucking Hitler in their newsletter recently.
