Three hours of sleep, sitting, thinking about all the trans youth whose futures they're attempting to stamp out with an endless stream of increasingly sadistic, authoritarian directives. I am begging every single one of us to get involved. It's all of us or none, so be the adult you wish you'd had.

1934 Germany, Adolf Hitler ordered a purge of the Nazi party to install loyalists. It was called The Night of the Long Knives. From there, the Nazi Party spread fear and intimidation through the marginalization of Jews, ethnic minorities, educators, and those with mental disabilities. Donald Trump.

So while everyone has been focusing on the dumpster fire of Trump, let's see what MAGA has been up to in the House.
They have been busy introducing laws meant to restrict abortion nationwide.
First up. Restricting abortion medication.
(This is going to be one long thread)

It struck me today that every work of dystopian fiction I've ever read involves a future without books. Maybe that's all it takes.

If fiction supposedly holds no value and you can only learn things from non-fiction, why is this country so bent on book banning (which includes mostly fiction)? It's almost like fiction and the themes within are based on the real world and can increase empathy and education of those that read them

Another violation of the law by Trump. Put this in a bill of impeachment, please.

What if the CDC didn't stop working with WHO?
I hope the CDC doesn't stop working with them. Felon47 would have to get congress to pull their funding and that means they'd have to go on record voting to strip the CDC of funding for trying to keep us safe.
Force them to say who they are on record.

Refusing to Be Complicit
In his first week, the newly inaugurated president has proven once again that he rejects our laws, values and principles. It's a mistake for Democrats to try and work with him.

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps.
The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years.
History is repeating. Pay attention.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
