Look regardless of what you think about the words. This is important information to share that is going to have very real and severe consequences for those that are vulnerable to it. I did not see this EO being discussed anywhere and so I shared it here.
If you think you have a better method for disseminating the message please do. I don’t care about being the one to do it. So go ahead and repost this with what you think would be the more appropriate title.
But please don’t diminish the impact of this declaration by the Trump administration in the process. They’ve skated in the grey areas and abused the privilege of plausibility deniability. And don’t sabotage those that are trying to fight it.
If you cared to share correct and accurate info, you would start by fixing the title of your post. But you’ve just stated above that you can’t be bothered. That’s fucked up, homie.
