If you are experiencing anything like I am this past month has been a roller coaster of fear, panic, anxiety and then more fear. Being angry , terrified and indignant as you realize this is really happening in this country and nobody is coming to save us or trying to stop it.
What’s even more terrifying is the number of people who are happy with what is happening or don’t care because they either don’t understand what is happening or don’t think it will affect them. MInority groups, women , immigrants, LGBTQ members, and particularly the Trans commuinity are facing aggressive threats to their very right to exist.
There’s so much misinormation and disinformation flooding the airwaves and so much blatant criminailty is happening that the media can’t keep up , and some media outlets aren’t trying to keep up at all.
There is a deliberate and methodical plan being set in motion from project 2025 to destroy the media, economy, social norms, before moving on to the courts, military and who knows what next.
Nobody knows what will happen next, if they will be successful or stopped, will democary crumble and Musk be victorious in his coup …or will they be stopped and the damage and onslaught be tended to? How many people will fight the good fight and for how long ? Will you report or fight for your neighbor ? Or will you flee to a more welcoming country? I don’t know, none of us do, but don’t give up. Remember there are others ready to fight the good fight, don’t let them keep you in such a constant state of fear or panic that you do nothing, don’t punch down or sideways but try to see the humanity in everyone and unite when you can however you can. I Don be welcoming or loving to the nazi, the white suppremist or the hate monger. I am saying treat everyone as your allies until you know they aren’t. Because community is one of the few things that will see us through this. Build your community, with love and respect, build your alliship, help when you can and accept help. They want to divide us, because they know we hold the power of our dollar, our work and our voice. It’s why they have engaged in this mission of fear mongering, hate mongering , and misinformation for so long. They need us to fight each other so we don’t fight them.
We can do it, we can come out the other side better, stronger, wiser and kinder than when we started. We can see each other as people again and overcome this. Overcome this ongoing threat, this danger, this evil cancer…we can win.
…until next week
