did you know that "woke" was originally a word created by black people to describe an awareness of oppressive justice and policing systems in the united states, and then white people co-opted it for when they find a group of video game characters that dont look "straight"

#MutualAid #TransCrowdFund

DON'T TRY TO CO-OPT THE WORK OF ALREADY EXISTING REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE GROUPS!!! Seriously, if you want to do something as an activist, look up what groups are already active and working in your area, and follow their lead.

If you are transgender or enby and fly the Soviet Flag and stan people like Stalin you are a special kind of stupid. We're talking about a regime that would label your existence as 'bourgeois degeneracy'. It's disgusting because it's a regime that would send you to a horrid mental institute at best and kill you at worst.

Being a trans or enby Tankie is some real "Jews for Hitler" energy

If any anarchists in Sudan are looking for help in spreading the word, get in touch with us, and we'd be happy to help!
