It's only a matter before a red state tries to extradite a trans person from safe state, which will comply in the spirit of bipartisanship. Or maybe they won't, in which case it will go to the Supreme Court which will rule just the way you expect them to. Fuck this depraved country

To be fair, we need to be forming that serious leftist org asap for a billion other reasons but yes, I tried to get libs to care about trans rights beyond tokenizing us when I was in DSA and a lot of cis people still don't get it

probably, or just posting anywhere really

He hasn't said jack shit while trans and their allies are systemically incriminated across the country, hexs too busy comittng multiple genocides. He hears you. He sees you. He just Does Not Care.

Help would be very much appriciated, pls pm me!!!

my advice would be do not count on any state protecting you. Do your best to protect yourself and those around you first. Even in those states with good laws, there is no guarantee they will cover things like: actions committed in another state, actions taken as a third party (not doctor or patient) to facilitate trans care, actions facilitating DIY HRT (could probably be treated as drug trafficking), etc.

But yeah I think that first map more or less lines up with the anti-extradition/anti-subpoena type laws that are on the books.

first map

As long as you don't want to run your own server or join a specific one (you probably don't), you just go to https://app.element.io/, or install element on your phone or computer, and click Create Account.

Once you're in, you can message directly with other people on any matrix server, join spaces (which work like discord's "servers", and join chat rooms (which are just one-off channels that don't belong to a space)

The only other thing you may or may not want to change is what app you use to access matrix. On desktop I like Nheko but I don't have any mobile recs besides Element (for context, Element is the chat app developed by the same people who created the matrix protocol and the matrix.org homeserver, so it's basically the default for everything, but other options are getting pretty mature, like Nheko). You aren't tied to just one though so feel free to hop around.

If you find one lmk

It's just federated chat. You sign up and join a server and choose a mobile app if you need one same as with penny lemmy then use it like a chat app.

It sounds to me like it's if that trans person is a minor, and you don't have permission from their parents.
