it is sometimes also our brothers, sisters, and neighbours who harm us
this is why queer people often have chosen family and never talk to their biological family ever again
True though that's exactly why we need a strong and supportive community. So people don't find themselves trapped As victims in that sort of situation. That they can have somewhere to go. Somewhere to be safe and Escape those that would prey on them. That's the whole point.
Don't I know it
This. National leadership is what got us here. Local leadership is what made us great. We can be local and think / cooperate nationally. You cannot be National and think locally for every individual place. You will fail every time as they have.

I think every asshole who sat the election out should stfu and take all of it in like the little bitches they are. They enabled this out of their unwillingness to see the bigger picture out of their virtue signalling and holier than thou attitude. All of us are now along for the 4-year ride. Thanks, fuckers.
Exactly, they voted him in. And don't give me this crap about protest votes or 'sat on their arse and couldn't be bothered' votes.
That's why the Grifter In Chief is sat in the White House now.
This is your life now, everything bad that happens will be blamed on his predecessors, never mind he is one of his own predecessors, the ignorant, and stupid orange muppet.
