I greatly fear for the LGBTQ community. They are being banned every possible way and there is so much anti-LGBTQ hate, they are in grave danger. One person very dear to me has moved to Canada. Another lives in a very rural area on a large piece of land, and I think feels protected there. Have we not learned anything from the tragic history of Matthew Shepherd?

I agree with you Joanna. The LGBTQ people aren't hurting anyone. I do not understand why they are so vilified by the Christian nationalists other than this is a Fascist technique to take a vulnerable group and make them scapegoats and targets of hate. That's why we can't allow them to succeed in creating a theocratic autocracy!! Why can't we just live and let live? I feel every person deserves my respect just because they exist. And, all of us with rights need to protect the rights of all others.
I agree with you, Cathy. I think you make an excellent point that this is a Fascist technique to take a vulnerable group and make them scapegoats and targets of hate. It reminds me so much of Germany and the targeting of Jews. Any one of us. an become vulnerable at any point in time.
