I am begging everyone to listen up. Fascist propaganda is being built and leveraged against the LGBTQ community in realtime. They're so unafraid of consequences that they give their followers instructions on how to slander and demean us, right out in the open.

Please read. 1/

And the delighted soldiers take their marching orders immediately and excitedly. Notice how they start tagging bigger accounts to spread the new propaganda strategy. 2/







In these replies: an academic congratulating the group for this new rhetoric, and someone reminds her to hide her "power level" (fascist learning) until she has her degree. Some others are concerned about this strategy leaking out, but not about lying-- they all support that. 3/3







4/ Step one, step two, step three...

There will be many more, increasingly damaging steps if this isn't met with massive pushback.

1. Anyone who thinks this stops at trans people is wrong. K&R.

And it'll take more than voting to stop this.

2. I don't see a way to stop this kind of madness.

5. It won't

Trans people and drag queens are just #1 on their list. The "easiest" target, and one egged on by reich-wing hate media and the QOP.

Once they finish killing us or whatever, it'll be someone new. LGB's. Feminists. Women who have had abortions or say no when they demand sex. Immigrants. People of color. Liberals.

We all know what MAGA really means... And these UltraMAGAs intend to create that America by declaring war on anyone who isn't like them or meet their approval.

4. There will be a next attack

And another. And another. At this point, the only questions are when, where, and do people die this time? Sadly, unless something is done to put a stop to this shit... eventually the answer to the third question will be "yes."

It's well past time to start arresting these people for domestic terrorism. That's exactly what the hell this is. They are terrorizing an entire country - because the election didn't go how they wanted, because LGBTQ's exist, because drag queens.

Anyone wanting to think I'm going overboard for calling it terrorism? I'm far more frightened living in America today than I ever was after 9/11. These single-minded savages are making it clear they intend to kill people like me. And unlike Osama bin Laden, they're not halfway around the world.

It's shit like this that leads to occasional bouts of binge drinking (like the other night) where my emotions go from one extreme to the other, and eventually I'm ranting and screaming about the injustice of it all and wondering if I'd be better off dying.
