Technology@lemmy.world•Disney reportedly lost 1.7 million paid subscribers in the week after suspending KimmelEnglish
1·3 months agoI feel this, I’ve tried to get cis people to go to protests and mobilize for trans rights for years, and crickets, but they manage monthly marches and even a general strike (in my country) for Palestine since Oct '23. People usually have the capacity to organize, they just don’t think most issues are worth it.

Buy European@feddit.uk•Is there a master list? Personal tips and tricks?English
10·4 months agoThere is the goeuropean.org website, but it filters exclusively through country of origin. For example, it’ll recommend Spotify as an alternative to YouTube music because it’s Swedish; despite the fact that it has donated to Trump and made a very lucrative deal with Joe Rogan. I think the best strategy is sorting through European brands first, then check out if any of them supports the far right in an important way, like the aforementioned Spotify.
She did an amazing Lucifer too!
Hateful families are the elephant in the room for queer youth. The defensive approach taken in the States that is all but “let the parents and only the parents decide about their kids’ care” sacrifices those of us with hateful and unsupportive families. Trans youth will never thrive as long as minors keep being considered their parents’ property.

News@lemmy.world•J.K. Rowling uses Harry Potter wealth to fund anti-transgender organization
9·7 months agoThe greatest achievement of gender critical ideology is getting women to voluntarily give men jurisdiction to police their bodies and presentation. To the Rowlings and Parkers, any number of cisgender women hurt by their ideology is worth it in their quest of erasing trans people out of public life.

2·7 months agoFrance and Spain at least have got some programs going. How effective they’ll be, time will tell. Regardless, I think Europe is going to receive a lot of young researchers from third countries that were planning on a PhD or postdoc in the us before this administration.

World News@lemmy.world•Paris unveils a memorial to LGBTQ+ victims of Nazi regime and other persecutionsEnglish
18·8 months agoPlus, the 1948 definition of genocide only qualified racial, ethnic, national and religious groups as possible victims of genocide. LGBTQ people were defined out of the genocide they were suffering. Quite comfy for the Allies back then, and to Holocaust denialists and gender critical ideologists today.
The greatest achievement of gender critical ideology is getting women to voluntarily give men jurisdiction to police their bodies and presentation.
