NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

If you feel this is "dismantled" then you have a long, difficult road ahead of you.
These are setbacks, not the end.
Even after all of these setbacks, one would be foolish to think things are worse for these persecuted groups now than in 1971.
We absolutely can't give up and let them win with these things they have done, but the fatalism I so often see and hear from people is so disappointing. You don't win wars by talking about how your opponent has already won.
We are in a battle in a long running war. It hasn't been going well lately, at least not as well as it had been. I just don't think this is all due to hippies in the 60s. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It is. I will be fighting for them until we get it all back. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Edit: I think the commenter above edited their comment after I replied. What I replied to was a pithy "tell American women and trans people it's a setback" with no real elaboration.
You keep reading things into my comments that make me think either you are having a bad day or you're not worth discussing this with. In either case: thanks, but I'll be stepping out of this now.
