Last month, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sent out a statement that the state would no longer change transgender people's names and sex on their driver's licenses. I've heard a lot about trans genocide but never believed it was real. But just look at the bodies piled up with tombstones saying, "Killed by the DMV."
It's funny, Prism FL, an LGBT nonprofit in South Florida, shut off replies to their scathing demonstration.
The FL DMV is killing trans people, so we're showing them the consequences pic.twitter.com/HyjSDHLyK8

So we showed up across the state: Orlando, Miami, Tampa, and Gainesville, to show them they are KILLING trans people

Trans activists "died" outside DMVs for 37 minutes, representing the 37% of trans people who have been harassed for having an ID with the wrong gender marker pic.twitter.com/GflEcC7PXS
Said marker is a sex marker, you know, the one you’re born with… the same one you can’t change, no matter how many tears you shed.

I've admitted before that I was a DeSantis supporter, mostly for the reason that he gets these things done. He doesn't just talk about them. He gets results.
Trans activists threaten to kill themselves if they can’t change their sex on their driver’s license. This insane emotional blackmail used to work for these people but now everyone is finally fed up and treating this sort of stuff with the contempt and ridicule it deserves. https://t.co/5jrm0KNU1H

If they are actually threatening to off themselves - they should be detained on an emergency psychiatric hold, under Florida’s Baker Act.

Protests like these are exactly what make people not take protestors seriously.

The DMV is actually doing right by dealing with reality.
These protesters only care about fantasy.
Yep… we are done with it.

Called their bluff and proved them wrong.
Let them stay there. I'm whatever at this point.

Everything someone does not like or disagrees with is "literally killing" them now. It's gotten old.
Traditional burial, or cremation?

It's not that these tactics suddenly stopped working. There are plenty of places where these tactics still work.

Passive aggressive Marxism.

Everything leads back to Marxism. As James Lindsay says, the issue is never the issue; the issue is always revolution.
They are a parody. Not worth noticing, let alone influencing any of us.

I learned something today: 37 percent of trans people have been "harassed" for having an ID that matches their sex. We should really pump that number way up.
