Sister Gorgon Victoria joins Esmée to explore the role of empathy hijacking plays in creating reactionary allies to 'victim' demographics, purity spirals, and radicalization. It's also a favored tactic of abusers and predators inside the BDSM culture.
Most vitally, empathy hijacking deployed within feminist movement or organizations can create breaches of trust and fractures that weaken solidarity and, when very public, weaken the movement's authority and influence.

Lauren Leggieri talks with Esmee on LGBCC's campaign to protect youth from a trans-medical-industrial-complex & loss of lesbian community & connection.
LGB Courage Coalition is grassroots and effective. You can donate to their work protecting children from the gender and transition industries at their website.
About Lauren
As Co-Executive Director for the LGB Courage Coalition, Lauren is pivotal in mobilizing volunteers and orchestrating powerful direct actions. Much of her vital work occurs behind the scenes, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of volunteers’ efforts for maximum impact. The LGB Courage Coalition is a U.S.-based registered non-profit, passionately committed to reforming culture and medicine to embrace and support gender non-conformity without any medical intervention.
Lauren leverages her platform as a voice in the conversation, having been interviewed on and leading podcasts that delve into the complexities of medical transitions and their specific harms to the lesbian and gay community. Her strategic actions have made a significant impact, notably directing protests at the 2024 Endocrine Society Conference in Boston, MA, and the 2024 American Academy of Pediatrics Conference in Orlando, Florida. She also led a crucial action at the U.S. Supreme Court during the US v Skrmetti hearing in December 2024.

platypus writes satire, speculative fiction, and cultural criticism with a sharp eye for the gap between what people perform and what they actually practice. Her work swings between darkly comic takedowns of gendered power fantasies and earnest, richly built worlds where matriarchy isn't a costume drama but a living system—always circling the question of whose stories get centered and why. She draws from years spent in the messy, under-resourced, quietly radical spaces of feminist organizing, and from a lineage of hereditary witchcraft that informs both her craft and her convictions. She refuses to choose between humor and sincerity as tools for getting at the truth, and she takes out the trash without being asked.
