The sweeping executive orders are supposed to make us feel hopeless. They're designed to make us debate the nuances, get distracted and be divided.
But I refuse. I know the fightback has already begun. I know there is nothing queers do better than organising, standing up for each other, and reminding everyone just how much love we have.
I know we've always been here, and always will be. So I'm here, to recruit you to the queer agenda - let's get stuck in.
We are Queer As Fuck. And so are you.

🔴 Within his first week Trans+ people have been banned from the military, Trans+ prisoners will be forced to go to prisons that match their sex assigned at birth, and Trans+ people will no longer be able to have their gender recognised on legal documents.
