Dear #white #trans people,

Do you ever have those moments when you're in like a crowd of cis het non-queer people who know you're trans but it's like an elephant in the room? like they'll awkwardly step around the topic, or stop conversations abruptly when the discussion strays too close?

Have you ever thought about like what is going through their minds?

- "Oh, this doesn't affect me, I don't know what to say"
- "ah, I'll just avoid the topic, I don't want [her/him/them] to get upset at me"
- "I don't know enough to respond"

I assume they must have good intentions surely? but like it doesn't really make it hurt any less though...

Anyway, consider reflecting on what goes through your own mind when you see one of my posts about racism. (it esp irks me when people interact with my post-racism-vent posts, so they clearly saw the racism ones, and then felt comfortable reacting to a non-race-related post).

Is your sympathy reserved only for other white trans people? I guess so, but maybe be upfront about that.

Trump Administration Makes a New Push to Speed Up Deportations

From the beginning, the idea of deporting “millions and millions of criminal aliens” was deceiving. (Immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than US citizens.) Of the 7.6 million immigrants on US Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s national docket for potential deportation, the agency reported that about 8 percent had a conviction or pending charges.

"This analysis is perceptive in the sense that the exact reverse is true—we are now in the second decade of a years-long temper tantrum sparked by the election of Barack Obama—not to mention the failed attempts to elect a woman to succeed him—and the effect it had on the fragile self-esteem of people like Beattie."

"They want an arrangement that perpetuates racial inequality indefinitely while retaining some plausible deniability, a rigged system that maintains a mirage of equal opportunity while maintaining an unofficial racial hierarchy. Like elections in authoritarian countries where the autocrat is always reelected in a landslide, they want a system in which they never risk losing but can still pretend they won fairly."

Adam Serwer says that what Republicans under Trump want to effect is the "Great Resegregation":

"What its advocates want is not a restoration of explicit Jim Crow segregation—that would shatter the illusion that their own achievements are based in a color-blind meritocracy."

"Friday night, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (who is black) and the Navy's top admiral (who is female) were fired, along with the most senior Judge Advocates General (JAGS) for the Army, Navy, and Air Force."
