Take five minutes out of your day today to explore the hashtag #TransHealthFail. Launched by the up-and-coming app MyTransHealth, it’s a collection of stories from trans and nonbinary people about the discrimination, harassment, rejection and downright humiliation they’ve faced at the hands of insensitive or ignorant healthcare providers. This is critically important – take it from the people who’ve lived it. (via BuzzFeed)

I would use the shit out of this
One of my least-favorite things ever is “attacking one social ill by making use of another.”
Like fighting sexism with ableism: “Classically-nerdy communities have some serious entrenched issues with corrosive views towards women. As if anyone would want to date those fat, socially inept losers anyway.”
Or fighting homophobia with classism: “The American South has a ton of rampant casual homophobia. Clearly, everyone below the Mason-Dixon line is an inbred pigfucker who can’t tell right from wrong.”
Or fighting terrible discourse norms with a whole cocktail of awfulness: “This online community harasses and doxxes any of its members who break from the party line. See, this is inevitable when you get a bunch of coddled teenage special-snowflake SJWs together.”
If you’re going to criticize someone’s bad behavior, please do, but keep a tight focus on their behavior and don’t drift into character-assassination or regressive stereotyping. “People who do bad things are the people at the bottom of the social ladder” implies the reverse, and we have enough of that already.
