Pride YMM sent out a notice about a far-right anti-gay/trans protest tomorrow. Nationwide, apparently, with one happening in our city. I'm not surprised, just sad and frustrated.

I was at a Pride YMM meetup a few weeks ago, and the subject came up. No counterprotest planned at that time, and there's nothing planned now. This does not surprise me, considering the safety issue.

When it was first mentioned, I didn't realize that it would be... in the morning on a Wednesday? So, all things considered, I expect it'll be very small. My city has a lot of 'phobic shitheads, but like... people gotta' work. With luck, it'll amount to a whole lot of nothing.

That's terrible! I'm so sorry that this is happening. I hope you are right that few people would show up — who the hell wakes up early on a weekday morning just to publicly reveal how pathetic and hateful they are?? D:

IDK, man! If I had a weekday morning free, I sure as hell would be doing something more fun with my time. :V
