Today I was told I should leave Europe because I apparently hate white people so much.

Why?

Because I keep fighting fascism and Nazis.

And apparently, according to this person, my great ideological failure is that I refuse to name Muslims as the “main threat.”

Seriously?

The chap I buy my kebabs from is Muslim. The family running the grocery store across the street is Muslim.

The people who tried to beat me up in Utrecht were Czechs. The woman who recently verbally attacked me on the U-Bahn was Christian, and white.

And yes, the attacker at the Berlin CSD was an Islamist.

And that is precisely my fucking point.

I fight fascism.

White supremacist fascism. Christian fundamentalism. Islamism. Nationalism. Authoritarianism. Whatever flavour of hatred comes crawling out from under whatever rock it has chosen to call home.

I am not going to participate in the fascist fantasy that Muslims are the enemy while white men are apparently waiting nobly in the wings to save civilisation.

Sorry. I've met history.

I know what hateful white men are capable of when they decide that their hatred gives them permission to hurt people.

And frankly?

I know people I would much rather stand beside.

My kebab vendor.

That Muslim family at the grocery store.

People who simply get on with their lives, treat me like a human being, and don't require me to pass some ridiculous racial purity test before they'll show me basic decency.

So keep your fucking race-war fantasies to yourself.

I judge people by their actions.

Actually, scratch that.

I don't collectively judge groups of people at all.

Except fascists.

Because fascism isn't a skin colour, an ethnicity, a religion, or a continent.

It's a choice.

And if you've chosen fascism, congratulations: you've chosen me as your problem.

I have no intention of making your life comfortable.

If every accusation is an admission, then it's worth asking why some people are so obsessed with imagining queer and trans people as predators.

Queer and trans people aren't campaigning to inspect children's bodies, police what they wear, decide which toilets they may use, or erase who they are. We are asking to be left in peace to exist, to learn, to work, to love, and to live.

The loudest voices calling us "groomers" often reveal something else entirely: an instinct to control, to censor, to monitor, and to dictate other people's lives. That says far more about them than it does about us.

Calling an entire minority "pedophiles" isn't protecting children. It's an old propaganda trick. It dehumanises people first, so discrimination becomes easier later.

Children are safest in a world where adults teach consent, kindness, honesty, and respect, not fear and scapegoating.

Protect children. Reject hate.
