    Even though I am more on the militant side with LGBTQ+ rights, I’m still pretty worried about what’s to come. I don’t expect the government to help me, and I’m building connections of solidarity and support that will keep myself and others safe, regardless of what happens.

    But I’m scared of what’s going to happen to trans kids cursed to grow up in a state like Florida or Oklahoma. Left to rot by a party that’s abandoned them once they’ve voted. I’m worried that queers aren’t realizing that we can’t expect reciprocal support from the Dems, especially at the federal level, and they’re not using their energy to build support networks instead of spending time and energy campaigning for them.
