Illegal immigration is principally a clerical issue. A problem of documents. If you give them documents, then they're not illegal immigrants anymore. They're already doing the labor. They should be given legal recognition and protection.

Cool. Fuck off then.

Youre the one who said that this has been being done to Republicans for 4 years. Prove it or admit you can't.

I'm not an American national. Just a trans person. I wonder why it would matter to me when all major social media websites start allowing people to call for genocide against my community.

Is... China in support of the Palestinian genocide? They've been very vocally critical of Israel throughout the past year...

This is like. AmericaTok. America is the nation that engages in by far the most Palestinian genocide denialism.

You should get footage of all those moments. Be neat to see em all lined up. Write up a nice summary of the context for each one.

... you made the claim. It's your prerogative to argue for it.

They'd have to shoot me before I will ever deny my own womanhood. Not even with a gun to my head would I call myself a man. I lived in a closet for 18 years and it nearly killed me. It damaged me in ways I have to live with forever. I am a woman. They can say whatever the fuck they want it won't change that. I will not bow my head. If it comes to it, I'll die with my back straight, proud of who I am.

A lot of people around here who don't know what project 2025 says to do to queer people. Also a lot of people being strangely anti gun about this. So what, you think the solution is to sit back and do nothing? Do you think individual trans people are capable of sby themselves overturning gun legislation and having all the transphobes guns taken away?

Fascists have guns. The police sure as fuck isn't going to start taking their guns away. The laws are not changing. If the state won't protect you, if the state is trying to harm you, your only choice is to arm yourself.

No, but it shows what they're capable of. Are you banking on Trump continuing the status quo? Even with all the random threats he's been throwing around? In charge of the most powerful military in the world? Do you think he's above labeling us all radical leftist terrorists and sending the militarized police after us?

Things are changing. We have no idea what to expect yet.

I'd love to tell you that that's comforting. But you're saying this under the assumption that the American military wouldn't be able to handle that. How many of those other nations even have standing militaries? Laws and treaties are just words. He will have nearly absolute power starting tomorrow. He can basically decide for himself what the rules are.

According to this statista article at least 80% of their population has mobile phones with internet access as of 2023. So I'm not sure exactly what you're talking about here.

Didn't mean to represent my statements as factual, just personal observation.

I'd still argue that it's not impossible for us to navigate around that. But I don't have any statistical basis for thinking that. If our dependence is that large then maybe America will annex us. Lord knows I wouldn't survive such a thing. So maybe I'm delusionally trying to be hopeful about having a future at all.

Are you under some pretense that I myself can stem the tide of transphobic violence? Are you suggesting it is personally my responsibility to end fascism, even as millions of people stand by doing nothing while the lives of an entire community are threatened?

How dare you use the words "mad" or "afraid" to describe the feeling of living under the impending threat of state violence.

Sure, and Weimar Germany voted for Hitler. Tell me, what exactly is the point of democracy if someone can legally be elected to end democracy? What exactly is the point, if you can just vote someone in who will end democracy? I would argue that one non-democratic act is literally and absolutely superior in every way to literally ending democracy.

But what the fuck do i know I'm just a trans woman sitting here absolutely horrified that several of my trans friends who live in the southern states could be arrested in a week or two for existing. That trans youth across the country are going to be forced to detransition. A whole generation of dead kids because a dictator takes over the country and to appease his rabid voter base puts their rights on the chopping block.

It was all a fucking lie. WW2 wasn't the last time. The holocaust wasn't the last time. No one learned a single fucking lesson. All the liberals who say "If I was in Germany I'd never have supported the nazis" are absolutely categorically full of shit. It never mattered. They could start rounding people up in the street and peoples primary response would be either annoyance at the blood on their shoes or passive distant pity. And I'm so fucking done with it honestly. Democracy is an empty word. It means nothing. If you live in America you have never once lived in a democratic society, not even if you're a boomer. It's just now the dictators are no longer even pretending that the system has any other purpose than mass violence and exploitation. They don't have to pretend. They've convinced half the world those things are good.
