"According to a briefing of the Department of Homeland Security"
So, it is recognized and acknowledged as a problem by the Federal government, rather than action taken by the Federal government against, say, one of the few LGBT centers in the country
that’s pretty awful. :( i wouldn’t compare anything tho. imo i just like presenting the truth as it stands, comparing of suffering generally leads nowhere
Ok I feel like I've seen a bunch of reports on the threat of right wing domestic terrorism from DHS and the letter brigade without seeing a lot of reports on what they can broadcast they are doing to address those threats. Like is there a specific set of tools they have to get congressional approval for or can they just get to work on these fools the way they've done with orgs like the klan before.
honestly the DHS being involved in this is just confusing to me too since they don’t seem to do… much at all, it’s weird to see them squarely on the side of human dignity for once.
hence why i also cited the Human Rights Commission :)

I don't think DHS actually has any major wins to its name. The original KKK was destroyed by the US military (deployed by authority of the president, but with legislature from Congress approving the measure), and the second KKK was destroyed by the IRS.
Well you get what I mean, committing to any sort of enforcement action

i get your interpretation but pretty sure ogmios here is doing veiled homophobia. their modlog shows no shortage of conservative talking points, unless corrected i don’t see this comment having been in good faith at all.
how should I express my identity?
some people are trying to undo the progress the world made in the 90s and early 00s. it's not just on this subject (abortion too, for example). even if this doesn't affect everyone directly, it's bad for the general mood and indirecty makes society and economy more dull and less innovative. it's like a big weight pressing down on everyone.
