Do NOT fall for any nonsense that this tragedy was caused by the LGBTQIA+ communities or trans people or “transness”. The overwhelming majority of mass shootings in the us are by white boys/men. Yet no one ever talks about how dangerous “whiteness” is 🤔🤔🤔

All of us should be concerned, whether we live in Texas or not. Imprisoning librarians for being "groomers" is an idea on pp. 4-5 of Project 2025, which anyone watching even a little closely must see is well beyond the "concept of a plan" stage.
