tbh the whole "trans women are new to oppression" thing kind of gives the game away. the people who say this think of us as nubile sex nymphs of the kind they search for on porn sites, eternally newly transitioned.
even if they had a point about new transitioners — they don't — they betray that they don't think of us as a demographic with older women in. because they don't think of us as real at all; we're their porn creatures, and we should stop interrupting the real women and the real trans people.
I'm an RA (resident assistant, basically making sure people living on my floor of the dorm are safe) on a college campus, and during one of my most recent meetings, we discussed what to do if I.C.E comes to the dorms asking for a student. This is unreal. This meeting was weeks ago and I still feel the same pain in my chest as when we first had to talk about it. I'm literally a 20 year old college student and I have to worry about what to do if I.C.E asks for one of my residents, many of which are international students. Plus, that same week, I.C.E was at one of the nearby highschools.
I don't know what more to say other than please be aware of how serious this really is. Please engage with your community and do what you can to protect them if possible.
Hey, I feel like everyone should be aware that teachers in the U.S. are being taught how to deal with when I.C.E comes into their classrooms looking for undocumented immigrants (students aka children). I.C.E officers are allowed to detain teachers if they believe they are protecting students. This is actual dystopian shit. Putting children on planes without their parents and dropping them off at an airport in a probably unsafe country where they have little to no connections is inhumane! Everyone should be appalled!
