In a few weeks, her family will be moving to Uruguay, a country she says is more accepting of the transgender community—and she is not alone.

    This is the desired outcome if they can’t force them to detransition or die.

      Fr.

      Make the bigots leave. Throw their own old slogan at them: “If you don’t like it, leave it!”

        I believe “Love it or leave it,” is their favorite configuration. I agree. They clearly hate this country. They should gtfo.

      The British are the Americans of Europe, so that tracks.

      At least Scotland can make it much more manageable.

    “Children”

    They are in their mid to late thirties.

    I mean, good on them for leaving, but the use of the word “children” in the title, seems needlessly dramatic/provacative.

    “Transgender family leaving US due to increased harrasment” would have been a better title.

      I don’t think anything the article presented is wrong. Children in this context are just her children. They could be of any age and they’d still be her children.

      They are clearly mentioned as fully grown adults multiple times in the article, and it’s not trying to present them as anything different.

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don’t end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
