⚠️ It's a trap ⚠️
I was just informed that the Guardian is prepping to do a story on DIY HRT and is looking to interview trans folk, particularly teens.
The story will almost certainly be weaponized by conservatives to argue for removing access to the necessary materials.
Just like with the police, anything you say can and will be used against you by mainstream media.
Be safe out there fam
@alice This is an unfair generalisation of 'mainstream media'. I see no reason why to distrust The Guardian, I only know their reporting as fair and balanced. It's my go-to news source for balanced climate change reporting, for example. We don't do decent journalists a favour if we toss them all on the same pile. We need less polarisation, not more.
@kritischelezer @alice And "we need less polarization" is emphatically NOT the thing to say here.
"oh can't we just compromise on whether gender transition should be criminalized?" No! We cannot!
