I dunno man, try listening to marginalized people *before* shit goes wrong, and maybe it won't keep being like that

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.
