       I wish more #trans people were less afraid of using the word genocide, that people would recognize we're already the subject of an ongoing genocide that hasn't stopped for millennia. If you are trans, you are a victim of genocide, even if you are not the victim of physical violence. Your connection to the past, ancestors, your life, your agency to be who you are have been stripped from you. The perpetual threat under which you live, for the sake of your existence. This is genocide.

       Erasure is genocide.Forced assimilation is genocide.Being the target of suppression and extermination for millennia by religions and governments alike is genocide.To say that #trans people are not and have not been the victims of genocide dishonors those who laid a path for us, who were killed or suppressed, the ones who never found themselves, or the ones who did and were lost, the ones who fought for us, burned for us, bled for us, wept for us. Acknowledging our genocide is necessary.
