We gotta talk (tw: transphobia and political issues)

I have a friend who is making a fund raiser for transrights
(I WILL COPY AND PASTE THERE DISCORD MESSAGE)

" I am hosting a fundraiser and I'd love it if everyone could get involved in any way they can!!

!! Warning for discussion of transphobia !!

As some of you may know already, there has been a real problem recently with transphobia and other bigotry in the UK. The last straw for me was a speech by our prime minister a couple of days ago where he used promises of enforced transphobia to gain votes. I'm sick of feeling helpless, and sick of being unable to protect myself.

I have chosen to do a fundraiser for the charity 'Mermaids' which helps to protect the UK's transgender youth. There are four ways you can help in this fight:

1. Follow this link to my Etsy. You'll find trans rights themed stickers, and for every sale I will be donating £2 to Mermaids.

2. Follow this link to a justgiving page where you can choose to donate any amount you wish. (again for the charity Mermaids)

3. Follow this link to a tiktok I made on the topic. If you cannot afford to donate, then boost the video and support people in the comments.

4. Send all of these links to friends, family, etc! If you can't afford to donate, then send the links to someone who can.

Thankyou so much in advance to EVERYONE who helps me with this project. I hope everyone is doing as well as they can at the moment, especially other British trans kids. "

As a transgender male myself it hurts to know that this is happening in the UK
I understand the feeling of being terrified in public in fear that you'll get shot/beat up over your gender identity
And to hear that my friends and many others are getting put in more danger hurts my heart
I know there's people here that will hate me for being trans or making this post but I'm going to boost this fundraiser as much as I can we won't be pushed aside or harmed this can't continue

I know a lot of you can not send money or buy things so if you could just boost the TikTok video <3 🏳️‍⚧️⚧️
