God help me….

Local gamer guy posts on Facebook asking who wants to be his campaign manager, cause he wants to run for Congress in 2018.

This dude’s work experience is service jobs at a used car dealership and a chicken fast food joint.

There is literally nothing that should make him think he’s qualified to serve in the U. S. House of Representatives except the fact he is a white, cis-het male who loves Bernie Sanders. He didn’t even run for his high school student council.

Trump is a bad example for a lot of reasons, folks.

So You Want to Wear a Safety Pin

Great. This is a necessary behavior in the face of the election of the most overtly racist, sexist, xenophobic, anti- gender and sexual minority candidate in the history of the modern United States. You know the rhetoric of his campaign was wrong. It was the very worst thing about America and you want to do what you can to combat the result. Good. Do that.

But don’t do it without a plan. Because the very last thing a tense situation needs is someone full of good intentions but with no knowledge of de-escalation tactics or self-defense. Your intentions are not a tangible shield. If you don’t make a plan, you will get yourself or the person you are trying to defend very killed.
