       "The numbers are stark. The poll from Data For Progress shows that 8% of all transgender people have already moved out of their community or state as a result of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation. An additional 43% of transgender people are likewise considering moving. Transgender people are between 0.5-1% of the population of the United States, meaning that 130-260,000 transgender people have already fled their home states."https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/us-internal-refugee-crisis-130-260k

       @mark it’s really bad i find it really concerning our news media aren’t really talking about it. That to me suggests it’s going to work just as well here as it has in the UK and US.

       @marlies I must admit to not following the news, so I don't really know.I think there's enough rhetoric for trans hate to grow here, but I don't really see the slippery slope happening. I don't think there's enough political momentum for anti-trans regulation

       @mark there wasn’t in the UK either until quite recently, the things happening now were unthinkable under Cameron. They didn’t even need a change in ruling party for it to happen. In fact, the biggest opposition party there reversed their stance on the issue just as much.
