I find it interesting
The people I see online who claim they simply don"t talk about politics in their family to keep the peace.
Are you gay? And you know someone in your family hates gays? That they voted for fascism because of their hate for gays and others ....and that part of your community is being targeted and yet....you just....don't talk about it?
That makes you a traitor.
It makes you the enemy of your own people.
You quietly break bread with people who would have you killed. Who voted for a man who will put you in a camp the first chance he gets.
And all those gays out there claiming Trans people do not belong to the LGBTQ community...they are not allies or even part of the community themselves...they are gatekeepers. They will help the fascists more than they will fight against them.
****Watch out for the shady people in your own groups who will deflect and make enemies out of others while being the enemy themselves ****
One of the most prolific hunters of Jews was a Lesbian who started the second world war as part of the resistance....she had a Jewish partner. Some who were captured were forced to hunt for Jewish people. This particular woman got very good at it. She seemed to enjoy it. The only way she was able to stay alive was to do this job for the Nazis ...others were killed because they wouldn't. She would pretend to be a part of the resistance ...pretend that she was helping them hide or escape. ...only to turn them in. Her name was Ans van Dijk.
