i am nervous that policy may be altered under a congress white house and supreme court stacked with republicans who historically implement anti-queer policies (see florida) that negatively affects me, my friends, my comrades, and my peers. it’s not an unreasonable worry that, given the opportunity, laws may be passed that curtail the rights of queer people in america
I was in my open-source arc and I found lemmy, joined lemmy.world because “default instance” and then they did their whole preemptive defederation thingy. they basically said “this is a tight knit online community of communists who hate NATO” and I was like, “hell yea.” I stayed because you all challenged my worldview and taught me new things about the world I didn’t know before.
