this is a blatant breach of humananitarian standards. at what point do people who act as if they are ICE (but have no uniforms markings or ID) considered combatants? if these aren't combatants, than any vigilante gang can start taking people away. #abolishICE #selfdefense

Just learned about DIAG, "Democrats for an Informed Approach to Gender," a non-profit that's approaching democratic politicians with TERF talking points. Their tagline is "biology, not ideology" & main focuses include ending healthcare & sports participation for trans folks, with commonly recycled, heritage foundation approved talking points. 1/3

Half of their "team" is using pseudonyms & they have several TERFY substacks they link to. They rely heavily upon the discredited CASS Review & the absolutely bonkers HHS Report as foundational "science." They also say "We support the LGB community," intentionally trying to drive a wedge in the queer community and Dems.

It's more rightwing propaganda intended to support Project 2025 & Project 2026's goals of eradicating

Great post! Get armed. Get trained. Get reliable equipment and forget about the 'aesthetic.' Firearms are tools to protect ourselves and our communities; don't fetishize them! #armedindigenous #armedqueers #armedwomen #blackandarmed #selfdefense #firearms

Yesterday, I made a post about a documentary that was recently released called "Arming the Left". I was certainly a bit alarmed by it, having dedicated so much of my energy and time throughout the years trying to push back against some of what I feel are bad tendencies I've seen repeatedly on

Republicans are reacting to evil weakling Charlie Kirk’s death like they do when an abuser kills their abuser or rapist and the GOP then freaks out. Sad!!! #EpsteinFiles #SelfDefense
