Every ex president in modern times has remained quiet after serving except one. Now is the time for Clinton Bush Obama Biden to start speaking out about what’s happening in the White House. Their words carry weight and they should use them like Bishop Budde. We must not remain silent!
And soon they will go for them in the light of day as well
They know they can't win on policy, so they are doing what every authoritarian has done before. Divide the masses, and make them fear for a member of the divided masses
Don't let them divide us
When people TELL you what they are going to do, believe them. The veep is worse IMO. He is young and is surrounded by clones who feel the same. If you think I’m being hyperbolic go watch this on YouTube. I’ll link in the comments.
Make every doorway they pass through in pursuit of violent bigotry in to a fatal funnel, make every street in to an ambush zone, every wall a battlement, get armed and organized with your neighbors before they start putting people in camps
It’s still crazy to me that so many in the trans community vilified Israel, a refugee decolonization movement established as the only safe space for Jews, and the only safe ME country for LGBTQ. The exclusion of Jewish/Israeli LGBTQ puts them in isolation and danger. Unforgivable.
Majority of Israelis and diaspora Jews hate Bibi but support Israel. So my point stands - How is the LGBTQ community making LGBTQ Jews and Israelis feel isolated and unsafe different from how the LGBTQ was made isolated and safe by anti-LGBTQ because “beliefs don’t align”?
my apologies but 1) I cannot follow your comparison here.. and 2) I do not speak for 'the community' but for friends & family who are included in said community .
I think you would agree that we can be for 'the people' without supporting said ruling govt, right?
My LGBTQ Jewish friends said they felt shunned by their friends/communities for being Jewish and for not hating Israel. It wasn’t enough that they didn’t support Bibi and his govt.
I hate Trump but love America. Israelis feel the same about Israel.
Of course everyone has rights, dress and act however you want , I really don't care. Just don't expect everyone else to pretend you are what you claim to be
Love it and great job 👏
We are going to need everyone to do what they can. If you have your neighborhood it would be great if you can reach out to the one next door for communication. Let's get whole towns involved if possible.
I told this advice to a discord group a while ago communication is key
Yeah~ that's rough for sure. We can only do what we can do. Just stay safe connect with any blue you find (probably community centers or art spaces. Find the like minded people if you can)
Social media can be a VERY powerful tool for connection as well.

That's why they are coming for Black people. The 14 A is where the protections are, and have been for generations. If you take down the so-called most protected class, the rest are easy. We have been sending warnings for 400+years. Maybe now, folks will start listening.
Disabled rights are human rights.
But where were you trying to protect us?
It sucks eh?
It sucks when you feel so alone and attacked.
It’s just that in life we are all in this alone. When it comes down to it, no one will be there.
I found that out the hard way.
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Stand up for all humans, as you will need other humans to stand up for you. All of these attacks against the rights of human beings are directed at different groups, but every person in those groups is a human being. These are attacks against human rights, so they are attacks against all of us.

I will always support trans rights but there is a reckoning within the LGBTQ community for doing to others what they fear will be done to them.

We have the right to eat
To sleep
We have the right to go to a bathroom if it’s a woman going into a males bathroom and vice versa
We have the right to be murdered, even as kids
We have the right to struggle worse than cis folk when job hunting
We have all the rights!
But any woman who needs to go in there to piss should NOT be accused of rape just cuz of what’s in her pants
All she wants to do is take a piss
a Govt's support of any group is only as solid as those who occupy the seats of power.
(ps NOT defending Hamas or any terrorist group)
destruction of Gaza tied to Netanyahu wanting to construct Ben Gurion Canal.

for the US, Manifest Destiny / Christian Identity & calls from actual Congress members for white nationalism
Will the Hispanic community NOW step up as they see theirs targeted?
Like we should expect a child to be stabbed to death in a park
Or a child to be attacked in their school bathroom
Or a child to be dismembered by an adult male
Or a child who gets bullied by parents and school and ends up killing themself
We need to expect this if we want to be ourselves
Black people should expect to be suffocated by a cop’s knee on their throat, only for their death to be covered up with “a sudden overdose”
We need to expect this crap
The market? Maybe
Gun laws aren't changing for at least 4 years.
Build your community in case civil war breaks. Better to be safe than sorry.

Let them know when you are fine. Let them search for you if you are not.
