  • Yes. In the rather famous case of the American Nazi party (like, the OGs before the GOP took over that status) in the 1970s when they wanted to hold a really in Skokie, a Jewish neighborhood of Chicago, were denied a permit on the basis of obvious harm, sued about it, and they ended up being represented by the ACLU on principle of free demonstration up to the Supreme Court where they won (and in turn the ACLU nearly collapsed from the popular fury at their willingness to do that). The case gained significant national attention and the people of Chicago organized a massive counterprotest to what ended up being a minimal Nazi turnout where they were unequivocally shamed and entirely unable to intimidate the Jewish locals they hated so much.

    In short, counterprotests can be an act of solidarity against hatred. They have their time and place.





  • I… don’t think there’s a lot of sheep. The area isn’t great for farming in general.

    Being homeless anywhere is insanely difficult and dangerous (and expensive) and I don’t suggest it even at fairly significant cost.

    I’m tempted to offer you to come stay with me and my partner in northern WI. We’re in a small, very liberal town also on the big lake and have an open room that we’re looking to share with a trans person in need. There are no sheep that I know of, but there’s alpacas nearby! DM me if you’re interested










  • From what I’ve seen of drag’s posts, drag uses “drag” as a universal pronoun, meaning it replaces all other pronouns when referring to drag in both first and third person and both objective and subjective case.

    The concept is fairly new to me but I find it linguistically interesting, if very awkward at first. The sheer consistency of a universal pronoun is surprisingly nice once you get used to it, though.
