It hasn’t even been a month since a young man in Brooklyn was shot for voguing at a gas station.

We took a deep dive into the social media activity of the shooter who killed a store owner for displaying a Pride flag – including his accounts that were deleted after he was identified.
What we found was disturbing. https://t.co/s3On0pZzk7

Students at Grapevine High School have staged a walkout. A few days ago, the Grapevile-Colleyville School District voted to essentially ban trans teachers from the classroom, ban the word transgender, pull all lgbtq+ books, and ban pronouns (figure that one out).

Librarians across my state (Missouri) are reporting patrons coming in with lists of books they want to ban or want to judge whether they are “appropriate”. What all these lists have in common is authors or subjects that do with POC or LGBTQ+. The agenda is crystal clear.

NEW: In July, Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta confirmed that slandering LGBTQ people as “groomers” violates their ban on hateful content. But in the months since, they’re continued to directly profit off paid content promoting the slur: https://t.co/6WrSaFRSmd

This is a war against us that will kill the most vulnerable and youngest and innocent among us.
