Trans people: Hey please don’t buy this game.

Cis people: What if I bought it, but also donated some money to charity?

Trans people: No thanks. Please just don’t buy it.

Cis people:

“More and more I’m starting realize that many people see “charity” as a store where you buy goodwill from strangers. Like “being a good person” is something you can purchase with money”

It doesn’t matter if you give activists money to keep fighting white supremacy if you’re also giving white supremacist money to keep hurting marginalized people.

Those things don’t cancel out.

Love watching all the people going “I just want to play the game”

Yeah that’s the problem. You want to play the transphobic blood libel game.
