If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://bsky.brid.gy/convert/ap/at://did:plc:m65ifh7vn5zdgs7izcmht4gy/app.bsky.feed.post/3lrxkwqrlpk2q on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
People need to realize that the New York Times is going to pivot to "self-ID" now, essentially to build up the next fight, a total end of all legal recognition for transgender people.
A handful of states have already started passing these laws, and it is absolutely what they are going for next.
