  • Well, if Nex’s sexual identity indeed was the reason they are dead, and all this had taken place, say, 20 years ago, nobody would’ve died because nobody would’ve asserted their sexual identity in public.

    Not only is that not true, people have been coming out since humans existed, it’s also wrong. You’re confusing sexual identity with gender identity.

    Regardless, all you are doing is victim blaming. Nobody should get beaten to death for how they express themselves. This is supposed to be the land of the free, not the land of the beatings for people society deems weird.

    You may very well argue that something is wrong that when it has consequences, but that argument doesn’t yet remove the consequences.

    The consequences for self expression should not be death, much less vigilante beatings that result in death. And your appathy is frankly disgusting, and a part of the problem.


  • A few weeks ago, on 7 February, the bullying allegedly erupted in violence when Nex suffered severe head injuries during a “physical altercation” at Owasso High School, according to the Owasso Police Department.

    Sue Benedict told The Independent she was called to the school that day to find Nex badly beaten with bruises over their face and eyes, and with scratches on the back of their head.

    Nex told her that they and another transgender student at Owasso High School had been in a fight with three older girls in a girls bathroom. Nex was knocked to the ground during the fight and hit their head on the floor, according to their mother.

    Ms Benedict said she was furious that the school had failed to call an ambulance or the police. She said the school then informed her Nex was being suspended for two weeks.

    She took Nex to the Bailey Medical Center in Owasso for treatment. They spoke to a police school resource officer at the medical facility and were discharged.

    That night, Nex went to bed with a sore head and eventually fell asleep while listening to music, Ms Benedict said.

    On the afternoon of 8 February, Nex was getting ready to go to Tulsa with Ms Benedict for an appointment when they collapsed in the family living room.

    Ms Benedict called an ambulance, and Owasso Fire Department medics arrived to find Nex had stopped breathing. Nex was taken to the St. Francis Pediatric Emergency Room where they were later declared dead.

    This child’s blood is on their hands. Not just the kids who did the physical beating, but also the conservatives who set up a culture where this is acceptable.

    Try to join the rest of us in reality when you can.





  • It’s obviously trying to conflate the two.

    No, it’s not. It’s defining the phrase.

    It is saying:

    • Worship of the written word

    Is defined by:

    • honoring only what is written and even then only what is written to a narrow standard, full of misinformation and lies. An erasure of the wide range of ways we communicate with each other.

    It say nothing about the love of reading or writing, or contracts. And what’s worse is that they are very clearly saying that “worship of the written word” is a characteristic/trait of white supremacy, not white supremacy. So you’re missing (it seems willfully at this point) the meaning of what they are saying.

    If you asked any random person what worshiping the written word was

    If you did that, you’d get a million different answers. And that’s why they defined it:

    • honoring only what is written and even then only what is written to a narrow standard, full of misinformation and lies. An erasure of the wide range of ways we communicate with each other.

    they’d probably say “loving reading” or “loving writing” or something to that effect.

    You’re just pulling this out of you ass.

    It’s super obvious propaganda.

    All you’re doing is making up a meaning that very clearly isn’t there, and then getting upset over your own made up meaning.
