27 people — including a priest, professor and health workers — were arrested today under terrorism laws.
Their crime? Peacefully holding signs opposing genocide.
This is how we sleepwalk into fascism.

Stop saying "Will trans men be welcomed into women's spaces?" as some kind of rhetorical gotcha, as though trans men have not been beaten and KILLED after being FORCED into women's spaces.
Your ignorance of trans men's oppression due to their invisiblisation does NOT a clever comeback make.
