    Almost immediately after Kirk was shot on Wednesday, right-wing social media accounts began speculating that his killer was transgender.
    Aside from the reaffirmation that these people really are as hateful, dishonest, and violent as they appear to be, I think that the most valuable lesson learned from Kirk's murder is how the Fascists reflexively tipped their hand; when they get their Reichstag Fire, we now know exactly who the scapegoat will be.

    Within hours of Charlie Kirk's assasination, Republicans were already blaming trans people. With fragile rights hanging by the thread of court rulings and blue-state protections, trans people braced for the worst. And they were right: The right has seized on the shooting as its own Reichstag fire, accelerating a campaign to target transgender existence – now with the full weight of the Trump administration behind it. For transgender people, Kirk’s killing has unleashed a new wave of anti-trans hate so intense that some are now making plans to leave the country altogether.

    I'm sure glad we have a real actual President of the United States of America who is working hard to unite every American of different persuasions together in unity! Oh wait...
