NYTimes Continues Its Attack On The Trans Community
A new editorial from a cisgender person at The New York Times has attacked the trans community, again. Read it here, but be warned that it is transphobic.
\u201c.@NYTimes is excellent at conveying the anti-trans perspective. Thanks to The NY Times, I feel fairly up on it. But what about the perspective of people who are trans? It\u2019s completely invisible to me from this newspaper. Is that intentional? Because it\u2019s odd.\u201d— Jason Stanley (@Jason Stanley) 1670190124
\u201cExactly this! As the Right is escalating its demonization of one of society\u2019s most vulnerable groups, much of the mainstream elite punditry treats trans people like a sinister cabal with hegemonic influence in desperate need of critical scrutiny. Frankly, it\u2019s disgusting.\u201d— Thomas Zimmer (@Thomas Zimmer) 1670193773
\u201cThis suggests NYT writers and editorial staff are either completely ignorant of the conditions faced by the people they're covering or willingly complicit in erasing our experience and treating us like a danger to others. An utter lack of trans voices in the NYT suggests both.\u201d— Gillian Branstetter (@Gillian Branstetter) 1670180869
\u201cI see Pamela Paul is once again using her NYT platform to complain about trans people. "Whaah! Trans people reinforce stereotypes! Let's just reject their existence and celebrate tomboys instead."\n\nWhat unoriginal nonsense. https://t.co/D6WsvWUR39\u201d— Zack Ford (@Zack Ford) 1670184064
