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.

We’ve gotten updated equipment, bags, talkies, gloves and more thanks to your support. We’ve updated our medic kits & emergency response supplies. We’ve done security once this month and followed leads on fascist activity with updates coming soon.

Ponchos, snacks, meals, waters, beanies, gloves, blankets, tarps, and more has been delivered to pantries and camps from Natomas to South Sac thanks to your help.

It’s okay to target low-tier fash. Its okay to bully & harass fash who aren’t connected to bigger groups. It is actually good to belittle small-fish fascists.

They provide excellent target practice to train against before confronting high-tier fash and they’re just as fashy.
Large target fascists have a platform, a formation, supporters and followers. It’s okay to sus out their followers and supporters. It’s good to actively make fascists afraid to come outside. The difference is power. Don’t wait for that fascist to build any power, disrupt it.
If a fascist builds a power base under or around themself, they become better trained, skilled and protected. Don’t let them build a power base. Defeat their confidence at every turn. Make them feel unwanted, unwelcome. Be rude, play dirty. Don’t let small fash off the hook.

Alert:🚨 🚨
We are getting news of a string of attacks on power stations in North Carolina that were shot out in a string of attacks, which disrupted power to over 40,000 people.

Patriot communities are soft-claiming this attack as an effective tool to shut down drag events. 🧵
This is breaking, so at this time, we have no confirmed information about Right Wing combatants having taken involvement in what the Sheriffs department calls “vandalism” of these power stations. However, there has been a deliberate response by the right to claim this attack.
Presently, there is a whole #/imokaywithit movement building from right wing patriot combatants to claim this as an acceptable means to shut down drag events.

Police were organized.
Patriot Front were organized.
WLM Ohio was organized.
III% were organized.

Do not show up to combat this without a team, a plan and contingencies. They are determined to mean you harm, and that have plans to inflict that goal. You must be organized.
Quit trusting “autonomous individuals” or “showing up for showing up” sake to these things. You need a team and an action plan on small ways you can chip away at their forces. You need several teams coordinating together on how to cut out big sections of their divisions.
Do not trust people who would use you as a shield, your health and livelihood, against opponents training to hurt you. Your moral platitudes mean nothing in jail, in hospital, in death.

Quit being their target practice. You need to think of ways of fighting back, together.

QUEER PEOPLE who are training against the fascist threat, hear this: 🏴 🚩

A formation that exclusively trains is as no good as a book club which exclusively reads. While both are great for the individual, theory without praxis are unhealthy habits for the collective.
This is not a mark against training, in fact, that is always the first start! Always read, reading is good for you! But do not fall into the trapping that by simply exercising yourself, that you are employing it over the world around you & acting effectively by doing so.
A book club shouldn’t just be reading and analyzing text; when the information is absorbed, action items must be taken to enact this new framework, with progress & reportbacks that set expectations & goals to be completely to rehearse this new frame work & test it against now.

🧵 Stop doing things the way we’ve been doing it. Stop using the same tools and repeating the same tactics. Put simply, stop fighting with ineffective weapons.

Thread time Thursday: 🧵/
Okay, we’re here’s an equation.

1. Something really bad happens.
2. We grab whoever’s closest, run to the first biggest event, we take to the street.
3. We commit to an action item that causes pressure for change and advocate for our cause.
4. We get small change & go home.
This is a method called “Building Critical Mass” when political issues spill over into the secondary-impacted population zones, building “popular support.” We often get tied that this method, this “urgency” “mobilize” and “burnout” organizing is the winning tool.
