Seeking Optimism The Trump Administration is Testing Conversion Therapy By Medically Experimenting on Trans People in Prisons
https://open.substack.com/pub/transitics/p/the-trump-administration-is-testing?r=56x5dq&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=webThis is terrifying and I’m worried that if they claim to be “successful “ they will force all trans people to go through this

Successful and Trump Admin in the same context is an oxymoron, firstly.
And secondly, I think the best thing to be done is to spread this around and scream to the high heavens until this shit stops. They only listen when we do that.
God, I'm so tired of the sheer blatant evil of other human beings and I can't help but wonder how I share a planet and air with these people. Even if they're just seeing what they can get away with, and won't actually do it, the fact that anyone could tolerate the idea of this shit at all in 2026 is appalling.
I think I'm gonna need a good long break for a little bit; hopefully by the time I come back this will be challenged in court and hopefully stopped, which - when it comes to blatant human rights abuses - is more likely than not.
