And yet people wondered why we held pride as so important.

American democracy has always been fragile. But know that after authoritarianism, the country is easy to mould into the shape you want.

He can’t overturn gay marriage. It’s already gone through the constitution and you can’t erase any constitutionalized laws no matter how hard you try.

People say it’s common sense to do what Trump does and that it should have been done a long time ago, but they never got specific on why it’s “common sense”. They don’t have a good enough reason to do what they do. They just think they can do whatever they want with no consequences.

It makes me so sad and mad watching this from another country. It seems that freedom for many in the US is now just a memory 💔

As a trans boy growing up in a red state, I am genuinely scared for the next four years. Stay strong everybody, we can get through this.

Just need to clarify. Trans kids can still get healthcare, but not healthcare specific to transitioning. It sucks, but I think the distinction is important.

I love the two party system, we get to take turns so it's fair :3 (I just wanted to be a cook but I'm seeing a future where I'm in jail)

One of my best friends just told me today that he might go home to India now that Papaya Palpatine is in office. I'm heartbroken about this. This is a wonderful person who is like family for me now. He helped me move out when my partner of 2 years became suddenly unsafe to live with (domestic violence) and I helped him when his dad died suddenly in the summer of 2020 (stroke but was turned away from 5 hospitals due to COVID & passed in the ambulance on his way to the 6th hospital). He's a beautiful human and fantastic friend. I'm so ready to fight but this time it's on my terms. I'm a different kind of angry than I was in 2016. 🤬

Less than a year ago, the President of the United States invited me to the White House to celebrate Pride Month.
Today, the President erased the words “pride,” “trans,” and “gay” from all government websites. He signed an order to ban all trans kids from getting healthcare. He fired all trans people from the military. And he joked about overturning gay marriage…
It’s terrifying just how quickly our democracy can turn into an authoritarian regime.
