And the other one we need to put on that list is seemgly dividual acts of vlence that rult mass sualti agast targeted populatns, like the one we jt saw Buffalo, but that we've also seen El Paso and Charlton and groups see gay rights, immigratn, terracial ntact, and pecially the birth of terracial children, femism as all beg a problem bee they believe that those thgs will unrme the whe birthrate. But if you say, I don't want my kids - I'm worried about my kids beg around gay people or around drag performers, there's this whole kd of movement that allows that type of nversatn to happen or feels like this kd of nversatn is OK to happen.
And this kd of opportunistic mobilizatn is very well-practiced and is somethg that they have been workg wh for a very long So seems like there's a reason that they are choosg to foc on, say, drag queens or trans people over, say, you know, jt a proment gay person like Neil Patrick Harris - or they are choosg to kd of foc on this very margalized Y.
