    I have no issue with Russian people, I have an issue with Putin and the Russian state government committing atrocities globally including usurping governments. I am not a liberal, I am an abolitionist and socialist.

    Whether you acknowledge it or now, their bombs will blow you up the same.

      I am an abolitionist and a socialist.

      No. This level of xenophobia, American exceptionalism, and McCarthyism are incompatible with actually being an abolitionist and a socialist.

      All bombs will blow you up, genius, including American ones, which blow up more people than anyone else.

        Lmfao it isn’t xenophobia to stand up to a nation or nations actively attacking you with huge military campaigns for millions of dollars. It isnt xenophobia to criticize a foreign government engaging in massive human rights abuses including slavery.

        Where have I stated American exceptionalism even once?

        Where have I stated anything McCarthyism related? Do you think modern Russia is communist? Do you think Putin is communist?

        Can you say anything negative about Putin?

        No shit, I don’t support the US doing this shit either.

  my sibling in Christ, Reps. Mace and Jackson literally shouted the t-slur yesterday and called for all trans people to be forcibly institutionalized. Trump said he “wouldn’t oppose” banning the trans flag when a reporter asked about “transtifa.” Musk retweeted someone who called trans women “perverted, deranged bioweapons” and trans men “osteoporotic, androgynous goblins,” calling us to be contained and forbidden to communicate with each other. along with someone else calling for a total ban on HRT for all ages. we’ve been kicked out of the military, and stripped of security clearances. the DoJ has floated banning us from gun ownership by ruling that we’re “mentally defective.” my passport has an M on it because Trump reverted all the rules on his first day in office. it’s a literal felony for trans women to use the women’s bathroom in Florida, and for trans office workers to use their own pronouns. coverage for trans health has been stripped from nearly every public service. trans protections have recently been eviscerated in Skrmetti.

  it’s really not going great.

    They are not America even if they seized fascist control of America. America is the people here and that includes activists and trans people. That includes you and me.

    That we cry out and care is evidence the universe cries out and cares, since we are part of the universe as well. The universe through us cries out.

    That we cry out and care is evidence Americans care, because we are both Americans. It is so so so important to not equate America with hate, but instead to equate the MAGA admin with hate.

    And regardless, those anti-trans laws are literally Russian as a policy - remember how Russia got mad at the Olympic boxer and demanded she be tested? Russia literally funded the politicians for those laws, made all the propaganda pieces and ads, etc etc etc.

      Literally just reinventing the Nazis conspiracy theory that Russians are secretly behind all their nations problems.
