I'd like everyone to know that when Trump says that two genders/sexes will be policy, he's not just talking about erasing transgender, nonbinary, demigender, agender, bigender, trigender, polygender, pangender, and all the others, he's also talking about erasing intersex people. He's erasing feminine cis men and masculine cis women. He's talking about erasing everyone who ISN'T cisgender and DOESN'T conform to traditional forms of gender expression.
And if you're part of the community and think, "This won't affect me because I am cisgender in a traditional way!", you're wrong. Once they finish with the gender parts of LGBTQ+, they're coming for you. They hate you just as much as they hate them.
“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

A reminder to the "the American government wouldn't..." crowd. They have. They have made their own internment camps before. They have rounded up innocent citizens and immigrants before. The victims of which are still alive to this day and trying to share their stories with the world, they have been trying to warn us for a long time. George Takei (as seen above) is a famous example of this. He has written about his experiences time and time again, even publishing a book talking about his time in these camps. He may be famous now, but at the time he was just another kid forced from his home. To this day he still firmly dedicates himself to trying to educate and inform people, trying to spread awareness with his platform. The American Government can and will do terrible things. Do not let anyone convince you otherwise.
Ao3 is actually massively culturally important and very very good at being what it is. I’m so serious when I say that ao3 needs to be protected as the anti censorship, by fans for fans, nonprofit, volunteer run, expertly designed archival site that it is. You don’t have to read or like fanfiction to understand that on principle, ao3 is a site that should be defended.
