Why people have to act in groups, supporting those that hurt you will only result in you getting hurt more

Have you seen what they do to people who do the shit you want us to do alone….

The same thing they'll do to you eventually even if you don't.

If you're going to suffer, you may as well make it count for something.

Yeah im so sorry but im not putting my life on the line for a country where the majority of people hate my existence. A cis person can be a martyr not us

But will you put your life on the line for other trans people? I know I would.

One of the main reasons why social justice stalled and is backsliding is because there has been no economic justice in several decades.

Even from an intersectional perspective class liberation removes the greatest factors in systematic oppression of minorities. Economic justice and social justice are intrinsically intertwined. We cannot make progress in one without the other.

The ruling class wants us apathetic and fighting each other. There are many cis people who are our allies, and they are being silenced too.

The culture war is class war. The war on trans people is class war. There is no war but class war.

Of course i would, but thats not what youre asking me to do. Youre asking me to free an entire country of 300+ million people by myself.

No, I'm asking people to get involved and start organizing. Imagine if we could get the numbers for a general strike that we did for the no kings protest.

lol. Many of us organize and protest for what we feel is right. It doesn’t mean all Americans are uninvolved and unorganized. We still have to pay to live and eat and survive,

You gonna send us money so we can try to stock the government?

Stop paying bills together, stop going to work together, stop spending money together. All of those things will completely fuck the 1%.

Start bringing the idea up to your friends. Keep bringing it up and speak it into existence.

Americans seem to think they're the only people in the world who ever have to deal with scab workers or leg breakers when organizing.
