Transwomen are about to be moved to federal

men’s prisons.

I read about this today in this article, as a result of a poster on Bluesky who made this passionate call to action -

Call the Bureau of Prisons (202)307-3198 Tell them to block moving trans women to men’s prisons. Tell them the trans women will be raped to death, it is cruel and unusual punishment beyond their crimes. Share this, copy it, get it around. NOW.

Note: For context, there were two lawsuits from trans women in federal prisons which resulted in a restraining order from federal judges but the order only covered them and the other trans women inmates are about to be transferred.

    I’m sorry, but do you actually think the bureau of prisons cares? They’re probably excited about trans women getting murdered.

    This isn’t an issue where calling anyone is going to have any change. The cruelty is the point.

      Some people still don’t believe the veneer of democracy has fallen just because they themselves aren’t currently in the camps. It’s adorably naive, if unintentionally deadly.
