Oh but cis men’s psychological security is so easily bruised. (To be clear, I identify as a sis man.) It grieves and alarms and enrages me to see the increased harassment and danger my Trans friends are being exposed to.

12 There is no neutrality. Non-commitment is a betrayal of the responsibility we owe our fellow humans and the living world. Study history. Form discussion groups. Organise. Slava Ukraini! Black Lives Matter. Women, Life, Freedom! Free Palestine! Vive le Canada !

11 Keep your eyes on the prize; but prepare to get your hands and your principles dirty. We won't like all our coalition partners; may choose expediencies we had once ruled out. The task is to survive, enough of our principles intact to have a hope of rebuilding, better, a shattered world.

10 Expel the US from NATO now: there are ample grounds. It threatens other members with military aggression, supports Russia against Ukraine and subverts democratic processes in member states. Rename and expand NATO to include Japan, South Korea, Australia, Ukraine, Taiwan, Mexico, Brazil, etc.

9 Don't give the US time to further corrupt or destroy multi-national institutions. The General Assembly of the UN must suspend the Security Council and strip its permanent members of their veto power.

8 Liberal democracies must re-arm. We must seek anti-fascist alliances where we can on every continent. Assume that a world war is beginning. It has. Do we have the means to win this fight? We do, because we must. The choices are to fight or to die. Ask Ukraine.
