It's been a while since I have posted anything and that's because 2026 has been full of significant stress and work place challenges. It's left me feeling very burnt out and questioning a few things. #burntout #stuggling #trans #transgender #Neurodiversity #parenting

CW: re: US pol, some thoughts on why people aren't rising up, thread
(17/?) I'm not quite sure what else I need at this point, but I would encourage anyone looking to plug into #activism against rising #fascism right now to think both about what you can contribute and about your needs. This is a fight against #Trump and #ElonMusk and their #coup attempt, but this is also a fight against #oppression that has been going on in the US for far longer than Trump and Musk and their ilk. We need to build a #left that is sustainable, that can care for people, and that offer alternatives to the #fascist dystopia we unfortunately seem to be entering. There are lessons we can learn from the fight against the previous Trump administration.
We also have to meet people where they are. If we're #BurntOut and exhausted, lecturing us to care won't change that. We have to accept that as part of our organizing and build that into our work.

(7/?) So to recap so far: People in the US aren't rising up en masse because we are living against the backdrop of an on-going #covid19 #pandemic that is harming our health, committed activists have been #traumatized and #BurntOut by their so-called "comrades" and #leftist groups uncommitted to care, and in general, people in the US tend to exist in a state of precarity to begin with.
Those are, to me, the big reasons why people aren't flooding the streets to stop #Musk's #coup or #Trump's blatant #unconstitutional overreaches. And of course, this is what the #fascists want. They want us tired and burnt out and precarious so that we will let them have their way, and they know full well that once they consolidate power, they will keep us even more traumatized, burnt out, and precarious as they continue to oppress and exploit us for their own gain. What do we do about this?

CW: PSA about dealing with burnt out, traumatized activists
As sort of a post-script--but not a subtoot!--to my most recent thread, but also a though that stands on its own, if someone tells you they are #burntOut and #traumatized from doing #leftist #activism, the most helpful response is not to accuse of them being a bad person in some way for not doing activism anymore. The most helpful response is also not to jump in and tell them why your activism is good and sustaining and different.
The most helpful response is #CompassionateCuriosity. Nonjudgementally ask them what happened and listen to what they say with empathy. Do not blame, shame or try to bully them into getting back into activism. They've already heard it, and you're only perpetuating a capitalism and white supremacy when you do. If you can learn anything from their experience, take it back to your own activist groups and try to mitigate similar damage to people in the future.
