    It’s either saying that they dislike transphobia and bigotry but are fine with the system that causes it (capitalism) either that or they dislike not being able to get a job and are blaming immigrants for it, imo it seems like the former

      Ok wait , how does capitalism create transphobia and bigotry ? Dont they exist irrespective of the system ? I mean big corps may be fuelling it , by implicity supporting transphobes but they will be the first to show themselves as pro trans rights if they get mainstream ?

        i had a really good thing to send to you from a trans discord im in but the person who wrote it recently got into a major argument with one of the other members, deleted all of her messages she’d ever made to the discord and then left, so now im gonna have to like find the resources she referenced myself from memory, while im looking for them you might find this an interesting read: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/vikky-storm-the-gender-accelerationist-manifesto

        it’s not exactly what you were asking about but it touches on it at points and it helped me understand my own transness in relation to capitalism a lot more

              Ok so I gave this a read and it made a lot of sense , since I come from india , that traditionally and now legally too has 3 genders , the male have been dominating one , and while now the female are assimilated to the worforce to some extend the transgender community ( known as hijra) community is kept marginalised , by not allowing them to workforce ( despite of there being no law against it) they are forced to either beg or get into prostitution , which keeps them poor and the society kind of feel disgusted by them for none of their faults. This was a good read !
