TW: Transphobia, including mentions of deadnaming & misgendering

Misgendering & deadnaming a trans child after they were killed is another level of disgusting. At this point, y'all know they are nonbinary & that their name is Nex. Y'all are intentionally doing this to spite them.

I don't care what their mother says, I don't care what the school says. I don't even care what the news says. Their name is Nex & they're an indigenous nonbinary person. Hate like this is literally what ended their life. You can't give your condolences & misgender the kid in the same sentence. Literally all of y'all need to grow up & put your bigotry to the side for like 2 minutes to acknowledge this shouldn't have happened.

[EDIT 3/15] Sources have stated that Nex went "he/him" & "they/them". At the time of posting (February 24) all news sources said that Nex was nonbinary and went solely by "they/them". (And there are still new articles that state this) From what I've seen he went by "he/him" with friends/primarily at school, but "they/them" with family.

I've addressed this in my reblogs, and comments, but obviously most people won't see that so I'm putting this here. Regardless, my original point still stands. His name is Nex. And Nex did not go by his deadname or "she/her". You are still childish if you're intentionally deadnaming & misgendering him or intentionally using feminine labels for him. (Because we've known since February that he never identified with terms like those)

// major warning for murder, discrimination, and murder amongst transgender youth

im trying to find the part where the three girls, all older than them, are charged for murder? or are those girls not going to have to deal with any sort of represcussions???

is this going to be another case of "let's keep these people's identities private!!" or what. are we ignoring the fact that those girls bashed nex's head against the bathroom floor meanwhile nobody helped before, during, or after the situation??? because the media did the same thing with brianna ghey, they refused to release information on her killers until what, a year later? why are we working so hard to protect persecutors but not the ones being persecuted?

there are so many things wrong with this situation, let's start with the fact that an ambulance wasn't called upon nex being found? those three girls had quite literally banged their head against the bathroom floor NUMEROUS times, where was your sense of urgency upon finding a SOPHOMORE, A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT WHO IS NO OLDER THAN 16, beaten on the bathroom floor??

we are talking about a 16 year old, somebody with a whole life ahead of them. nex had so much to live for and now their blood is on your hands and i hope that you feel guilty. i don't even think enraged is the word i am looking for in this situation, it's a feeling far beyond rage.

as a society we truly need to do better because jfc. i have to live my life in fear everyday, so do my friends, the people i love, and thousands of others - we aren't scary, we are scared.

rest well, nex, they will never forget your name ❤️

adding onto this post because i still have so much to say: nex was no different from you and i, they took interest in the same things we do. nex liked the walking dead, minecraft, and their cat, zeus. but now nex won't be able to partake in the things they love because of how f'ed up society is. the fact that america is perfectly fine with murdering innocent people on a daily basis truly tells you all you need to know. we are fighting a war we will never win because people refuse to accept the fact that trans folk just want to live their lives, almost like everybody else!!

i read in a reblog that nex was twospirit and i just wanted to add that, sorry if it seemed as if i was trying to leave that out, i wasn't aware. that doesn't change anything though and my point still stands.

we are not scary, we are scared.

2/25/24: please read what @youareprobablywrong said in the reblogs, it also includes ways to actually take charge and help prevent future events like this

I'm gonna wade into the predstrogen discourse for a second and say it's kinda gross that the staff targets trans women for 'being indecent' or whatever but this ad crossed my dash this morning:

Them thighs might make me go awooga, but this pic is more risqué than anything pred got banned for. @staff you want to lose value in this company? Keep hating your target audience off the platform, I'm sure that'll solve the problem.

Nex Benedict

Can I get serious and bring up Nex Benedict? A 16-year-old nonbinary student at Owasso High School in Oklahoma. Died on February 8th 2024. No...murdered on February 8th 2024. The police have not confirmed it, but all signs lead to it. Nex got into a fight in the bathroom. They and their transgender friend had been jumped by three other students and badly beaten. Nex had been bullied constantly for being nonbinary, but their mother told them to keep their head high. However, she didn't know how fatal the situation really was.

Oklahoma passed a bill a while before the crime that required public school students to use whatever bathroom matched their assigned gender at birth. Because of this, Nex had to use the girl's bathroom at school. Could this have been the reason they were jumped? Had this bill not been signed, would they still be with us? This only proves the horrible state of transgender teens rights and what a twisted society we live in.

According to Nex and their transgender friend, whose name was not given, when they went in the bathroom, they were being bullied by three older girls. As they tried to stand up for themselves, violence broke out. By the time Nex came out of the bathroom, they had scratches on the back of their head, bruises covering their eyes and face, and a large lump on their head. After Nex died, their mother said they told her they had been shoved to the floor and had hit their head. All of the injuries were inflicted by the three girls. Despite Nex being severely assaulted and on the brink of unconsciousness, the school refused to call an ambulance or the police. Instead, they gave them a two-week suspension. The reaction of the school staff is outrageous and disturbing, even if they hadn't died.

Later that day, Nex's mother took them to Bailey Medical Center to get treated and checked out. After a few hours, they were released from the medical center. Their mother said they had fallen asleep listening to music that night with a headache and sore face. When they woke up the next morning, they got ready to go to Tulsa for an appointment. As they were about to leave, they suddenly fell to the floor, seemingly unconscious. An ambulance was called immediately, and Owasso Fire Department medics hurried there. But when they arrived, Nex had already stopped breathing...after being taken to the emergency room, they were declared dead.

The police began investigating the fight, and an autopsy was issued. There had been little to no news until February 20th, when police stated that they were interviewing staff and students at Nex's school. The next day, an autopsy report said that Nex had not died from head trauma. Police say that they think their death was not related to their "physical altercation." Mr. and Mrs. Benedict spoke to a lawyer and decided to start a private investigation for themselves, which is still ongoing.

Even after this heartbreak event, people went into an uproar to protect this teenager's memory, and people started to investigate deeper. Some people have accused Chaya Raichik, who runs the 'Libs of Tiktok' page, of being one of the causes of Nex's death because of her ''hateful anti-trans posts'' that targeted public school teachers. One of Nex's favorite and most admired teachers resigned in 2022 after being targeted in one of these videos. Chaya Raichik said that she was "being falsely accused of murder." Although what she does is despicable and could have been the source of a lot of Nex's grief, there is little evidence linking Chaya to the death, and she cannot be blamed without further evidence.

One ray of light in this situation is the happiness Nex's parents brought them. Sue Benedict is their biological grandmother, but she had raised them since they were 2 months old. She legally became their mother a few years ago. She stated, “Nex saw themselves right down the middle. I was still learning about it, Nex was teaching me that.” Her husband Walter also commented to The Independent, "When you’re old school, you don’t always understand it.” While the death of Nex Benedict is a tragedy, it's good to know that after a school day of being bullied, Nex could go home to a loving family.

Nex will not be remembered for their death but for who they were as a person. They will be remembered for the love and devotion they gave their cat, Zeus. Or for the hard work they did to achieve straight A's. Maybe for their love of animals or how they always played Minecraft. Perhaps their family will think of them when they walk past the snack they always asked for at the store or their favorite childhood toy. It's these things that make us ourselves, not the hate of others. It's who we are as a person, all of the little things that make up me and you. This is what Nex deserves—not to be remembered as a tragedy but as a wonderful kid, and I think we should give them that.

Below are some pictures of Nex and links to additional sources. Stay safe everyone.

if you claim to be pro-trans but you draw the line at transgender kids receiving gender affirming care, then you are not pro-trans. this applies to both cis and trans people. this is also a reminder that trans people can be transphobic.

Nex deserved better. Nex was a CHILD, with a bright future who is now dead. It makes me sick what happened to them. We NEED to protect trans kids, or more will end up dead.

I swear to god some people doesn't give a shit about sa/csa survivors. Especially those people who accuse the LGBTQ+ community of "grooming". Surprise, say "it's ok yo be gay" ≠ grooming. Stop being fucking stupid (I literally was abused by conservative homophobic hetero man btw).

It's ironic that almost every LGBTQ+ hater is later exposed as a predator.

I’m genuinely so tired of the anti-trans rhetoric and trans hate on this website of all fucking places. Like please get a grip. Do you know where you are? 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

It’s extremely fucking hard being openly trans on the fucking internet. Y’all need to learn to stop and actually do something with your lives.
