    When ever I see this behavior against trans people or minorities of any kind I think of some old white antebellum slave master" their juts violent a animalistic race, when I was whoopin my slave the other day for being slow in the field, he turned around and hit me!"

    Then some southern bell says" I do declare clearly this is why God made us the masters and them the slaves!"

    the thing that commenter acted out was literally the thought process of tens of thousands of southern Americans, especially the rich slave owners. inciting violence in a minority and then demonizing them for pushing back is textbook oppression. you hurt them until they cant take it anymore, then make them seem silly/violent for not liking it.

    Hello! Trans person here to do cis people's work for them, as per usual

    Transgender people are over 4 times more likely than cisgender people to be the victims of violent crime, and families with transgender members are more likely to experience property victimisation.

    There was a 93% increase in tracked homicides of transgender people in the US and Puerto Rico in the 4 years between 2017 and 2021, 3/4 of which were black trans women, despite only making up around 13% of the trans community.

    372 transgender and gender-expansive people were victims of fatal violence between 2013 and 2024. Almost 4 in 10 cases between those years saw no arrests.

    Accountable for what? There’s nothing for me or the transgender community to be accountable of. Assuming the shooter really was trans (their conflicting manifesto suggests they were just slinging shit for the sake of it) the major environmental factor is societal pressure, primarily perpetuated by the right. Of course the responsibility is on the shooter and shooter alone, they had every opportunity and chance to deal with their issues differently. But to ignore the other factors at hand would be ignorant and neglectful

    He's doing this for all the wrong reasons but I DO think we should be more careful about SSRIs and research their negative effects. I had a mild eating disorder when I was younger and was prescribed SSRIs for it. Nobody asked if I had tried therapy, nobody had asked enough to realize this was just a very short phase and I could've easily gotten through it if I just ate safe foods and meal replacement shakes for the few weeks that it lasted. Nobody even told me the risks. All I was told was 'take this, and you have to keep taking it because if you stop you'll get sick'.

    Other than dysphoria I was pretty much mentally fine beforehand, but the SSRIs made me feel very strange and I got depression. Then when they figured out i had depression, they didn't dare attribute it to the DRASTIC SUDDEN CHANGE IN MEDICATION and gave me MORE of the SSRI.

    They completed obliterated a mostly happy kid's mentlal health because they were too lazy to ask a few questions to determine if an SSRI was right.

    I've talked to my therapist about this, and she says that seeing from the inside how various medical industries deal with mental health, it's a big problem that everyone just wants to hand out SSRIs as a cheap and quick fix, even when it would be harmful or there's a root problem that is causing ALL of the depressed feelings that could just be fixed. The forms they make you fill out before they try to push SSRIs on you (if you're an adult, if you're a minor they don't try, they just tell your parents to MAKE you take it and make it seem like you need SSRIs much more than you do) are also stupid, because on a bad day anyone could be mistakenly diagnosed with depression as the forms don't take enough care to seperate 'being depressed currently' from 'having depression'.

    This is so frustrating because we NEED to investigate SSRIs and be more cautious about them, but I don't want RFK FUCKING JR behind it.

    Now, I take an SNRI (although I'm sure he doesn't know the difference), but I can assure you that I was much more erratic before taking my medication. I was more likely to be a danger to myself than to others, but that said, my most persistent ideation was jumping onto the highway from an overpass that was near my college. That would've hurt other people, mentally even if not physically.

    Basically, my point is that psych drugs help to keep people from doing things that hurt themselves and/or others. Restricting access to medications when access to mental health services is already a problem is only going to make things worse (which I suppose is by design).

    Also, trans people are more likely to be the victims of violence than the perpetrators.
