This rhetoric isn't new. It's a rehash. You want to know who wrote the playbook? Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf supported by Goebbels as propaganda minister in 1933. It would form the basis of the Holocaust: dehumanizing, stigmatizing and creating a hostile atmosphere towards certain

communities such as jews, Slava, Roma and yes including gay, transgender and lesbian people too, who all ended up in the same concentration kamps. Key difference being that when the allies liberated the camps, those people that were part of the gay, lesbian and trans community

instead of being liberated , were sent straight to prison. Since 2016 I have been forced to witness a return of the same horrific language being used as back in the 1930s, which has gradually become more agressive, hateful and violent.

The one key difference I see currently is that when I compare the US with the UK, is that the US has already started to put their genocidal plans into motion by moving forward with a record amount of bills all designed to criminalise anyone that seeks to provide positive care.

Which brings me to the UK...where yesterday's program #bbcqt made it very clear that the general tone or views expressed here is not any milder, showing that what's brewing under the hood is no different from the USA.

@RishiSunak @jk_rowling @Keir_Starmer While the manner in which you express your views towards transgender people may be phrased to make it seem that the argumentation comes from a place of legitimate concern and reasonableness, the truth is that there is very little difference

between Trumps plan and your goal, because clearly you would love nothing more than see us removed from society. So spare me your fake sentiments that you wish us no harm, because we see through your lies. You can claim to be the voice of reason all you want, we know that

all we are to you is an easy target with no means to defend themselves considering how you all are so magnificently supported by "free and unbiased media" which are so impartial that none of them have even remotely covered the protests that have been held against section35.

No doubt all three of you sleep very well at night. I can positively tell you that I can't even recall when the last time was that I didn't wake up to be confronted with a list of insults and/or threats. So here is to hoping that this message has made you feel very uncomfortable.

I'm not holding my breath that anything I have said to you will help you realise that perhaps those concerns all of you love to bang on about may not be as legitimate as you thought. I'll end on this note:

All three of you have claimed to be defenders of women's rights, yet when I look at the often long lists of misogynistic men that come out of the woodwork with some of the most violent , rape-apologetic messages to support transphobic statements hurled at us,

I can't help but wonder if maybe, just maybe, you could have this all wrong. One thing I can tell you: Even if you completely remove us from society, it won't bring the enlightenment you think it will.
Have a very pleasant day.
