the thing i keep coming back to us that it's just agreed-upon that The Bad Trans Women are out there. people disagree about which ones they are and how you can tell but nobody questions that they exist just as imagined
for trans women it becomes about proving that you aren't one of them. for avowed bigots it's about arguing that we're all like that. but for the third and most subtly dangerous category, which i tend to think of as liberals who haven't done the real work, whose politics is correct when things are easy and reactionary when they are not -- to these people, trans women in general are not automatically bad, but they also haven't questioned their axiomatic belief that The Bad Trans Women are out there. and so they can be relied upon to turn on any trans woman on whom the least suspicion falls.
this is one of the Bad Ones, you see, and in order to be a Good Ally they have to protect the reputation and good name of abstract, general trans women by unpersoning this literal, actual trans woman. never mind that the abstract people never benefit, or that the real individual is socially murdered. bring a Good Ally means helping judge which trans women are Bad, see?

I love you paladins I love you knights I love you sword and shield brawlers I love you intimate healing I love you warriors with a code I love you unbearable weight of expectations I love you longing for the quiet life you gave up so others may have it I love you fighting to the last breath I love you doing the right thing I love you doing the wrong thing and spending the rest of your days dealing with the consequences I love you hubris I love you god complex I love you plate armor
you came back wrong and i am racked with guilt because i cannot bear to see you like this and i should have let you rest. i loved you so much that i defied death itself but i do not think either of us are happy
If you're having trouble keeping up with what's going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:

While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as "pro terrorism" (which they're not, they're literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.
