There is no way they aren't just straight up going to come for us.

Edit:For Cis comrades, spread the word and emphasize the seriousness of this to everyone you can. Making sure people actually know about this is the most important thing as the majority of people just dont know anything or pay attention.

    Dear cishet people: if you want to help, you need to build a network before the camps open and everybody loses the ability to fence sit. If you can covertly transport medicine, or better yet people, you might be able to save some lives soon. Anyone who’s snuck across the Canadian border to drink as a minor, your experience is about to pay off. Tell any queer people you know that your home is open to them. If anyone wants more direction, I can share some limited organizing experience.

    It might be useful to compile a list of resources for people to find homes in areas out of the country, closer to the border, or just in areas which are safer in the short-term. I believe there was an effort to build a network for this early on in the site so if there was any success to that I’m open to help

    I’d love to hear from anyone who has a background in history and can provide some examples of refugee liberation to help inform how this is best done and what the pitfalls are

      I'm doing my best to do this. I currently offer shelter to trans people and SA survivors I know irl, and if shit hits the fan in this country, I will start reaching out to online people too.

      My plan--for better or worse--is to rely on my own wealth and class privilege as the protection. I could be wrong, of course. But that's my plan.

        Thank you :rosa-salute:
