I’m Growing Alarmed For The American Trans Community

I smell a rat. The FBI seems to be making up, out of whole cloth, some sort of connection between the person who murdered Charlie Kirk and the Trans community. It seems as though the pressure to find something, anything to fit the murder of Kirk into the required MAGA narrative is enough to cause them to just flat out lie.

The murderer’s family said point blank that he lived with them and now the FBI (and some rando FoxNews producer) are claiming he lived with a Trans girlfriend. What the what?

Add to this the growing calls to, well murder the mentally ill, and I — a member of the bonkers community — find myself growing a little worried. It doesn’t take a genius to imagine a situation where MAGA finally gets their chance to put Trans people in camps and murder them and before you know it, that particular dragnet also involves just kooks like me.

MAGA is so smug about it, too. They’re like, “Ah-ha! We have finally found what we need to murder Trans people in cold blood.”

The interesting thing to me is what happens to ICE. The purview of ICE is going to expand at some point into something more along the lines of the SS. Form follows function and all that. It’s just a matter of time.

I Got Nothing Against The FBI

While my rhetoric about the FBI may have grown a bit more heated of late, it’s more about me fucking hating what Trump is doing to it than anything else. My sole encounter with the FBI — when I talked to one of the PR people about an element of my novel — was quite pleasant.

It’s because I trust and like the FBI that I’ve grown so fucking angry over what’s going on with it. It’s being corrupted and turned into a fucking arm of the Trump campaign.

Anyway. Live long and prosper, guys. You deserve better.

Should I Be Worried?

Maybe not immediately, but it’s within the realm of possibility that Trump’s weaponized FBI (or ICE?) will come after anonymous nobodies like me soon enough.

I’ve made my decision — I’m riding this pony all the way to the bottom. I’ve always been a loudmouth crank and, as such, it’s not like I could fit the square peg that Tyrant Trump would want me to be fit into to begin with.

So, whatever happens, happens. And I know that once it becomes clear that even nobodies like me are at risk that I’m going to feel….some pressure to just “shut up” for the sake of this or that thing or group.

Fuck that. I’d rather die on my feet that live on my knees a slave. So, if that means becoming a political prisoner to Tyrant Trump, so be it. Hopefully, of course, it won’t come to that.

Hopefully, something dramatic will happen and I won’t have to worry about such bullshit. What that might be, I don’t know.
