Media doesn’t care about trans people

If you follow Toxic Anti-Trarans Media Scope in the last few yearsYou have a good reason to worry about the welfare of Australia’s trance community, including a political attack threshold.

Things are even worse for America’s trance community. Queer Lobby Group Equality in April Australia He gave a travel warning To consult trans people or people who have a history of queer activism to rethink travel to the United States. Florida and Texas are among the worst states for trans people. Bath ban and efforts save your details And To threaten the charges of fraud People who change gender markers in their drivers.

In order to justify these laws, the rich and powerful conservative figures in the United States do their best to remove and exclude the trans community from humanity. Right -wing political commentator Benny Johnson stated“The trans motion makes the mental illness into severe terrorists aiming at murder.” White Nationalist commentator Laura Loomer calling “Trans Movement” will immediately be classified as a terrorist organization ..

Republican leaders also made the wrong claims that trans people continued the mass shots we did not attend. Like Donald Trump JR and Texas Senator Ted Cruz He embraced a claim that he was behind a transsexual woman behind the shooting of the Lakewood Church last year.

This phenomenon continued with Charlie Kirk’s last shoot. Even before the shooter was identified, accusations and violence against the transsexual community were threatened. Donald Trump JR He suggested trans people He was more severe per person from Al Qaeda. Political Strategist Joey Mannarino stated“If the person who killed Charlie Kirk is a transsexual, there is no more compassion for that genre. We have already tolerated too much [from] These creatures. “

For registrationTransparent people are not likely to commit violent crimes. According to ReutersIn the last decade, only four mass shoots were made by trans people. This is counted 0.11% of 4,400 shoots.

On the other hand, extreme right -wing pro -violence Cisgender people – gender identity individuals who match the gender they are appointed at birth have increased in the last decade. Trans people are four times more likely be a victim of violence More than CIS people. However, I hope that CIS people can imagine the transparent terror we feel because we expect news about whether the shooter is a trans person.

Of course, Kirk claimed that Tyler Robinson was not a “transsexual”, but it was also claimed that he had lived with a trans person with a lover. The latest update was that Robinson was motivated by Robinson’s love for Charlie Kirk’s partner, Kirk’s anger for his anger for the anti-transition campaign and deep fear for his wife’s welfare. In his words“There was enough of his hatred. A little hatred cannot be negotiated… You are worried about love”.

The trans person has no participation or information about what Robinson will do, and that he had fully cooperated with the authorities. They pushed an international news story against their will, names and faces, which were worldwide.

Meanwhile, sales points such as Fox News have used this loose connection to publish unquestionable claims.Transgender movement [is responsible for] Most of the mass shots we see”. Here in Australia, ABC And SBS Robinson has published articles on how to use this information against our community. Sky News Australia, of course, went even further, published the full name and face of the partner, and with a text conversation between Robinson, which he described as “creepy.

It is surprising how desperate Australian media is to protect the interest in this killing, but apparently no interest or sloppy about how this story was armed to attack my community.

A report from the Trevor Project said that suicide rates of transsexual youth in the United States increased. Up to 72 % In recent years. In 2023One quarter of the transsexual young people had attempted suicide, and 10% of trans young people needed medical treatment after suicide attempt. Last year, at least 350 transsexual people worldwide killed– With at least 32 in the United States.

This is the first year of the second Trump presidency. We are banned from public spaces. We are recorded in national databases. Equal Our flags prohibited. It is called “creatures öyle deserving us“ no mercy ”. For the whole speech of Trump’s presidency Nazi -likeLet’s not forget one of the primary victims of the Nazis They were transsexual people.

Charlie Kirk’s scope of media was on the border Hagiographic. Kirk’s murder received statements from leaders in countries where most supporters have never heard of. Following the killing, Australia’s Ambassador to USA, Kevin Rudd said that as well as his thoughts, “All Australians” was with the loved ones of Kirk. If political violence is so “terrible”, as our Prime Minister claims, where is the anger of violence against my community? The rhetoric and terrible numbers attached to him should even provoke a condemnation lane from the Prime Minister who walks happily in Mardi Gras.

Still not. As a trans journalist, I know how difficult it is to find any role in the Australian media view. I can’t even imagine which point of the organization is interested in the situation of my community. Even more frightening thinks when this point could be.
