To the Green people that want me in jail...

Coming from a group of PCB's that deliberately changed Chloe's Facebook account so I could send her messages a couple of days before that 2023 meeting, there's not much in the way of a defence.
You lured me there, then found it uncomfortable that I was trans.

By the way, I can prove that they changed the account, as I was pulled up for those messages ('texts', they said .. not the truth).
I didn't text her; never used Chloe's phone number due to shyness.
That was the altered account that I was messaging; as in, her real one was replaced with that dummy one for several weeks in my FB feed.
That's quite sophisticated for a bunch of people who are claiming that I crashed their campaign launch with no forewarning.
They knew we were there, and Gary goes to lots of political events.

Like, the problem for all those Greens is that they find me unsettling, and they'd really rather not admit that it's something to do with them. The silence, the fashion sense, the music: those unsettle them, and so does their lust for my porn.
It's clearly transphobia. In 2022, you literally told me to wear trousers to the hate roast, then proceeded to insult me and tell me to detransition via the roast.
In 2023, I turn up and you're apparently unhappy, but I didn't notice any other trans people at Chloe's campaign launch (just a drag queen), and your justification that I was disrupting is entirely based on the clothes I was wearing.
That's just the way it is when we're all decked out, plus we were literally coming from the Whakamana museum opening: Gary joked afterwards that we occupied the couch!
Perhaps Chloe's weed friends didn't fit in with her uptown friends, but we're still her mates as well.
As I said, the Greens have been consistently transphobic. It's not 'Amanda's a bad trannie' it's 'why aren't there any bloody trans greens, and why did my friends shift allegiances to TPM?' ... racism in the Greens, and transphobia in my instance: none of this should shock, and it's what most of us in politics think. PCB's are an outgrowth of middle-class values, not a political alignment.
