A Quick Note on LGBTQ Rights

It is not worth applauding someone when he says he's not going to (openly, vocally) roll back one of a marginalized group's rights.

It is worth noting, however, that there are queer immigrants, refugees, Native Americans, low-income individuals, and young people who are already paying the price of new policies and appointments.

Don't expect me to be grateful that you vowed to protect me from foreign threats. In fact, stop using my name to enact discriminatory policies that are a danger to our national security.

We see you.

We stand in solidarity with all queer people.

We are more than marriage.

And you best believe we know how to resist.
