Nazi groups, including the Christofascist youth group, New Colombia Movement, just got a #drag show in #AustinTX canceled. I know for a fact that community defense organizations including the local John Brown Gun Club offered aid. I respect the performers choice to protect themselves but hate seeing the fascists successfully attack #queer culture, again. This is a genocidal movement.

A TERF conference is reportedly headed to Austin in April. We need to get organized.

@kitoconnell You'd figure Austin at least would be safe. I worry for my brother and his friends. Austin was my promised land once, but it turned into tech bro hell. Not to mention impossible to afford.

@mchristian I flagged it as sensitive content! Because I know not everyone wants stuff about fascists on their feed.

@kitoconnell That's so fucked

@rageagainstleaves it is. Austin has been in a bubble where this hasn't been happening much but the bubble is popping or already has

@kitoconnell Can we please call these fascists what they really are, terrorists.

@fyzzlefry they fit the definition in several ways but I personally don't use that word as a journalist because of how it's been politicized
Show threadFyzzlefryDec 18, 2022
@kitoconnell Understandable, but this is pretty much the definition.

@fyzzlefry oh for sure, I don't disagree with you there by any means

@kitoconnell Why can't security get hired for these events?
Show threadSocialistStanDec 18, 2022
@kitoconnell 🤦‍♂️ Don't do that people, that's how they win. Antifascist groups exist to secure against this, use them!
