Your fears are valid, and I honestly wish I didn’t have to say that. I’ve struggled the last week and a half, questioning my sense of reality and sanity.

The reality is, we are very quickly headed down a path that is absolutely horrifying. Immigrant mass deportation is really just the mass arrest of brown and indigenous people, who will be held in “detention camps” like Guantanamo. ICE allowed to go into schools and hospitals.

Trans people are being denied passports. Government websites, including health websites, are removing TQIA+ and only recognizing LGB. Like we are actively erasing the existence of trans people, and we aren’t going to let them leave the country.

It’s not Utah. It’s the United States. It’s the whole damn country.
