embrace the core principals of anarchism if you want to survive.

  1. help your neighbors in times of crisis
  2. this is a time of crisis
  3. morality does not come from the state
  4. the state's power comes from the consent of the governed
  5. with unity through solidarity of the exploited we can withdraw our consent to be governed
  6. it's our bosses, not our brothers and sisters, who harm us
  7. as a moral agent, it is your responsibility to help your community and not the state

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.

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.

When your brothers and sisters voted for and continue to support a fascist it's them as well.
