Remember these names. If you see these names, shit is about to go down. Any organization that allows these people to soeak at their event is either very ignorant or willfully platforming a massive transphobe.
These are horrible people. They lie, they publish bad ‘research’, they promote abusive therapies. They have all been discredited a thousand times yet they continue to get invited by media and conferences desperate for a transphobic ‘expert’ to hide their bigotry behind.
*Blair White doesn’t claim to be a scientist so if you count transphobic pseudo-scientists, yeah it’s literally five people
Yikes. Yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes. I wasn’t planning on watching anyway because I’m so over it but yikes this is awful. Not one person stood up for her besides the only other woman. Both of them were spoken over, mostly by Jason Bateman. Just awful.
Jessica Walter, who has been in the industry since the 60’s, not only gets gaslit about the abuse Tambor put her through, she gets mansplained by people half her age and a quarter of her experience and acclaim, about what the industry is.
you ever notice a lot of stuff is considered poor and gross unless its upper middle class (white) people doing it
food trucks in the 90s were the realm of taco trucks and fairground food and were always considered unhygienic and nasty until all these rich city kids started opening food trucks and now they’re “trendy” and “innovative”
riding your bike to work is only considered geofriendly if you can also afford to drive a car but don’t want to, then you’re saving the earth, everyone else isn’t somehow??
recycling old cheap stuff to be used as furniture and wearing really old clothing is a sign of poverty unless you’re doing it a certain way or wearing a certain kind of old clothing
double standards are gross and you should expose them in your life as much as possible
