You can’t compromise away fascism you can simply and easily become party to it.
Our LGBTQ 🏳️‍🌈 and transgender 🏳️‍⚧️ family, friends and colleagues are not okay. Hold space for them to grieve without telling them how it affects you. Words and language matter which is always the precursor to violence

Dear new WOC on the fediverse. You will not be protected from harassment on here unless you're a part of an instance that actively centers the protection of its users.
