obviously not as bad as other people have it, but shit’s getting kinda scary in education rn
my job is almost certainly going to be banned by our government very soon. i do outreach for marginalized students.
most schools in the nation are buckling and removing all language promoting diversity and equity from their websites, as well as purging offices that serve those purposes
limits to grants, loans, scholarships, supports, and services means that fewer black, brown, queer, and disabled students make it to graduation
students who do attend school are now no longer safe from ICE abductions. today i sat in a meeting where we discussed the cold hard facts of what to do if and when a student is disappeared by ICE. where do their records go? what about their belongings, left in their dorm rooms? do we mark their school year as incomplete? what is our duty to inform their families?
we had an all-staff lecture telling faculty that if ICE knocks on their classroom door, they should not answer it. that if they do, they are offering up their students to be taken. to tell their students not to run or panic or reach into their bags, to prevent shootings.
other faculty are being fired, placed on leave, or otherwise shelved for teaching true history, because complaints that brown people are getting too uppity can cost a school millions of dollars in funding.
there’s a reason fascist governments go after academic institutions first. education is, always has been, and always will be one of our strongest tools in resisting subjugation.
if you’ve ever been guilty of devaluing pathways like voting or a college education, it’s understandable. now’s the time to realize there’s a reason they don’t want us to have access to those things, and fight hard for them.
the argument of “biological advantages” re: trans folks in sports is eugenics and should alarm you. what other rights will they deny you because of unproven genetic inferiority?
if men are so inherently stronger and faster that they must be barred from playing sports with women under all circumstances (in their argument), who is to say that they aren’t also so much smarter and level-headed that they must not share leadership positions? who is to say that white people, assumed to be genetically superior, should not have access to facilities separate from people of color? sports teams, elected positions, healthcare?
if access to spaces and programs can be limited on the supposition that one group has inherent, biological advantage over the other - regardless of what science has actually proven - then we have cleared the legal stage for the return of explicit white supremacy, in which cis white men are mandated to dominate all others for our own good.

i don’t want people to panic. the US been in a fascist state since its formation. what we are watching now is the establishment of a dictatorship.
i want you to notice how mundane it is. it’s happening in stages, boiling the frog. people are noticing it happening.
he has already expressed interest in invading other nations. he is establishing figureheads who will agree with anything he wants in every branch of government. those people have already codified in ink that he will not be held accountable for any actions taken in office. they are ejecting and censuring political representatives who disagree with them.
they are destroying communication channels expressly because they are “anti-american” (tiktok) and it is too easy for us to share ideas. they are spreading targeted, dehumanizing propaganda against brown people, queer people, the disabled, and immigrants. they are stripping away our civil rights to free speech, organized assembly, self-expression, voting, and equal representation. they are stripping more human rights away and actively separating children from families. they have already militarized the police.
it’s here.
i think we’re still a few years out from total shutdown of online communication and arrest for disseminating ideas, a la north korea. we won’t be doing camps the same way as they did in the 40s, either.
we know that if the US decides to begin exterminating certain groups of its citizens, the international community can and will do nothing to stop it. palestine is a case study.
if you can, learn to drive. get a passport. get a physical, paper roadmap of the US. stock up on covid masks. learn basic first aid. learn to cook using bare-bones ingredients. keep an eye on your neighbors - what flags they display, if they seem friendly. and learn some basic conflict deescalation skills. having these things will help more than anything else.
again, i don’t want people to panic. i think there’s still a good chance we can right this ship, and if not, there is time. for the vast majority of people, business is going to continue as normal no matter what. it will all be orderly.
it’s so jarring when you realize trump supporters aren’t a loud minority and that roughly half the country is voting for that man after EVERYTHING and it makes me sick
in the spirit of hope, i don’t think so. i think there are more people who want a fairer country - polling shows a general support for queer and abortion rights for example.
it’s just that the right is better at mobilizing their base than liberals are. and it’s because our liberal politicians are too afraid to lean left and actually appeal to their voters (its because power protects power)
