Even if you are not #LGBT, this should still matter to you!
When a government is allowed to take rights away from one group, it learns that people will accept it.
And once that door is open, it will not stop with LGBT rights.
One day it may be free speech, privacy, women’s rights, workers’ rights, or another freedom you personally care about.
Protect the rights of others before your own are next.

The LGBTQIA+ community is making a boundary. We are saying that groups who want to cut people out of our community are not welcome in our spaces. Not because we fear debate, but because exclusion is not debate. It is harm.
If someone wants to build politics around removing people’s rights, dignity, or safety, there are already spaces for that. Those spaces exist. They just are not ours.
We choose community. We choose solidarity. We choose people over ideology.
You cannot claim to stand for liberation while aligning yourself with movements that mirror fascism in language and method. At some point, everyone has to decide where they stand.
We stand with humans. We stand with each other. We are not interested in sharing our spaces with hate.

She might not be here to say it.
But let’s not let death stop Janey Godley from giving the middle finger to Donald Trump.
Let’s do it for dear friend Janey.
We want the media&politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. https://t.co/8jqoDWAOo9
