Queen Máxima of the Netherlands enlisted in the Dutch Army as a reservist, the Royal House said, because the country’s security “can no longer be taken for granted.”

Stonewall did not in fact do more than 50 years of voting
we live in an age where a lot of people get exposed to base level knowledge and don't get a fuller understanding but think they have authority to speak on it.

I'd point out that that period of progress didnt come from voting, that came from wide-spread activism. All the riots and protests did more than electing uninspired old white guys ever has. So far voting hasnt achieved a lot for us.

We are deciding right now whether we want to be a country with ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.
This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care.
It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back.

To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally."
In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

The point of getting a hundred thousand people together to protest the government is that it is impossible to actually take action against any one of them.
We really, really need to squash this idea that the first step in effective protest is ensuring that nobody can ever identify who you are or distinguish you in any way
