Queer militancy has never been an option, but forced upon our communities as a result of oppositional social & institutional forces which have organized to see us dead.

As such, we are required to perfect our militancy and train with each other in our fight for #QueerLiberation. An image of someone standing in a field of snow. They are we
We must be meeting, training & practicing continually & proactively to defend against the fascist menace. If they are dangerous, we are required to be more so. If they are equipped, we must be more so.

You are in this fight, and where you are, we fight with you. An image of a Lavender Angel during a Jayland Walker protest
When you fight together, eat together, love together and learn together, you can become a revolutionary force inside your community that’s very presence halts the fascist advance and inspires others.

When you become a formation, you are capable of more together than anything alone. Your formation can work in tandem with other teams towards unified goals and multiply our capabilities to disrupt & remove the fascist threat.

While we fight for our liberation, they fight for the right to hurt us, hunt us and kill us. When we become well organized, principled and equip, this puts their capability to oppress us in danger.

Good. They should fear oppressing us.

Team work, unity and skill on the floor changes the tides of battle in many little ways which maps the course of battles. You can unite to eject the fascist threat, and you should!

We are the most dangerous, together.

They will lie about you and demonize you. You will live rent-free in their minds. The fascist machine will make you the caricature of their fears.

You must fight anyways. Your very existence serves as deterrents and repercussions for their terror.

Tips for effective organizing. 🧵

1.Build rapport with others. Providing non/transactional work to projects outside of your own, spending quality time building relationships & being available to others creates channels of consistency & trust.
2. Vet your prospects. Not everyone shares your interest & character. Getting to know others is essential in placing helpers where they fit, even if that isn’t with you.
3.Focus your work. Pick one or three things you want to accomplish and do them really well. A full plate means distracted work and often causes failures in multiple project zones.

Tonight, we will be posting some highlights from one of the many essays we carry. “Ur-Fascism” or “Eternal Fascism” by Umberto Eco (1995) on growing up under Italian fascism & then liberated Italy.

We will be reflecting important points from this essay.

The essay opens up on the influence Fascism held over Eco’s young life & schooling. Warfare and bullets were as common as dodging traffic on your way home from school, and collecting on the casings proved lucrative. The Partisan’s win in Milan (1945) changed everything he knew.
“In May we heard that the war was over. Peace gave me a curious sensation. I had been told that permanent warfare was the normal… I saw the first photographs of the Holocaust, thus understanding the meaning before knowing the word. I realized what we were liberated from…” A black screen with white text reads, “In May we heard tha

There is an ironic contradiction about #Elon’s Twitter report system that explains itself into a loop. Where reporting small accounts for #transphobia results in suspensions but reporting #/AndyNgo & #/LoTT for the same yields no results. Why this intentionality?
As what was exposed in #Elons #TwitterFiles leaks, #/LoTT received special considerations for their reports. An arrangement was made to not act on these reports before first speaking with members of the Board. This played a crucial role in #/LoTT success & growth.
It is not an accident that Queer community members have the “power” to object nebulous transphobes online while leading mouthpieces of the transphobe movement receive protection from #TwitterInc.

That short act makes us feel it isn’t tolerated, when exceptionally it’s protected.

The Atlanta uprising, #StopCopCity, #DefendAtlantaForests is sparking international solidarity and revolt. In the so-called United States, police attempt excessive repression as we inch into a Summer of Rage. How do we prepare? 🧵 The image of a hand wielding a drink with flames erupting fr
One of the first ways to defend yourself is removing your digital fingerprint. You can use this anti-doxxing guide to protect yourself & others before things ever get spicy. Make yourself digitally anonymous to everyone except who needs to know.

Second, even the most tame solidarity protest will be taken seriously. You must equipt yourself with political anonymity to protect yourself & others. Keep yourself covered, obscured and protected when you go out.
