Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

I'm not sure why we allow hateful turds like this to exist.
That's the same thoughts the TERF's have
That's a huge simplification, though. It's not meant in a literal sense. Nobody wants to actually off this person. It's like saying "Nobody should be allowed to shoplift" and "Nobody should be allowed to hoard power and control over things we need, so we therefore need to shoplift" are the same opposing statements. The action against each statement, or the action each statement is advocating for are inherently different, though, similarly as the original statement.
No shoplifting looks like a surveillance state and increased police presence. No hoarding resources looks like flipping the power by electing politicians who don't accept bribes (lobbying) and therefore serve the resource hoarders, and then taxing (with probably a few insistent pushes along the way).
Jks idiotic rhetoric asks similarly increase surveillance and police presence. Not allowing her to exist, means extricating any one person's ability to have this level of harmful power over any demographic, similarly voting for people who will use the wheels of power to stop her using her money to cause this influence. But it's just easier to shorten that and say she shouldn't exist.
That said, I'd add a caveat that, historically it's taken blood to change the direction of things that be, if that's their terms, then that's their terms. If we leave them to be, they extract the blood of trans people, and trans women, of course including cis women. So there is already blood. Their way proposes harming, hugely, already. So if she won't leave by progressive means, she'll leave by her own devised means.
We leave her to go about her ways = blood.
We stop her with politics = no blood. We are unable to stop her with politics = blood.
Trying to stop her only equates a 50% chance cloudy with a chance of blood.
So even if we choose blood. It's still less blood than she is already proposing.
And also, Luke I am your father.
she and musk love each others company, both are anti-trans rich people.
