Someone’s decision to leave is theirs and theirs alone. I fully understand why people who have the means decide to stay, I also know firsthand how difficult it is to leave. Leaving is not an easy choice by any metric, and I’m not going to allow the US to send me to a concentration camp in Ghana so that fucks like you can remain comfortable.
The USA made it very clear that they want to kill me. I went to my us rep with a half dozen other trans people and said “we believe the government has genocidal intent towards us”.
He said “yeah I don’t disagree with you”
“Can you make a public statement in support of your trans constituents?”
“No because then someone in Ohio might not vote Democratic”
This was in one of the safest blue districts in the entire country.
I have kids I need to keep alive and to stay alive for.
