Hey this is for all you cis folks out there. Shits really bleak right now for trans people, and not just because of this whole reddit crap. Republicans are gearing up to pass some really heinous laws that do things like coercively de-transition trans kids, make being a trans teachers illegal, making it so that you cant legally change government docs documents, the list goes on and on. Things are really really really exhausting, and as much as many of us are big fighters, others of us are barely getting by both materially and emotionally. Like I am pretty materially comfortable and 2 years into my transition and even I am pretty worn out by the world, it is like 1000% worse for baby trans and trans people who aren't as lucky as me.

So I am asking you, if you yourselves have the mental and physical means, stand up for us in any way you can. Even if you cant do anything in the real world, if its just calling out shit and bullying transphobes online, every little bit helps make things easier. We need you comrades.

    If workers had any sort of say over their workplaces, I'd say putting up a snarky sign would piss off the correct people and stop them from coming around, but if it's a chain I know that's not really in the cards

      Yup, that's what I was thinking. If it were up to me there'd just be a sign that said "Transphobes, fuck off" but I don't think we'd get a lot of business in my area after that lol

      Edit: of course that sign would be right next to the one that says "communism will win" and also the one that says "[redacted] the [redacted]"
