There’s no polite way to say this – I’m fucking furious.
Furious at a government that continues to rip away the rights and dignity of trans people with calculated cruelty. Furious at a White House that thinks it’s acceptable to play politics with lives, especially the lives of the most vulnerable. And then, on top of the relentless domestic attacks, they pulled USAID funding that literally keeps babies from dying of AIDS. That’s not policy – that’s fucking evil.
Let’s be real: what’s happening isn’t just heartbreaking. It’s a full-blown authoritarian lurch, cloaked in bureaucracy and smirking cruelty. While the administration dresses its agenda up in soundbites about “freedom” and “values,” the actual results are the erasure of queer people, the abandonment of global health responsibilities, and the quiet, terrifying normalisation of oppression.
This isn’t governance. It’s a campaign of control.
To the trans community: you deserve safety, love, healthcare, and respect – always. You deserve to exist without having to fight for your right to be.
To the global health workers: your work saves lives. Gutting your funding isn’t just reckless; it’s genocidal.
To anyone watching this unfold in horror: stay angry. Let that anger sharpen your focus, not wear you down. Donate to frontline orgs. Write. March. Organise. Vote like lives depend on it, because they do.
