The trans community will look after it's own. If you feel like helping, there are many guides online to producing hormones and helping already existing networks of distribution for them. The entry cost is relatively low and once setup is easily repeatable for very low costs.
Abortion pills is another thing altogether. I don't know if those are feasibly produceable with supplies that are easily available.
I wasn't talking about the availability of medication for gender affirming treatment, and I don't know that any trans person is safe under Trump regardless of the availability of medication.
That is probably the most immediate pressing concern for most trans people, yes. Violence against us is a possibility in many ways, but denial of healthcare is almost guaranteed from their rhetoric. Denial of hormones will end in dead trans people. A lot of them. People like me who are post-op do not even produce their own hormones. Denial of my medication would have significant negative consequences for my health.
This is a post about medication as well, you can't fault me for responding about medication.
What can I do to help, as a cis man?
Unfortunately I can't vote in the US since I'm not a citizen.
