I 100% agree, which is a huge part of why I don't engage much with social media. Lemmy is literally it for me.

I'm not in a marginalized group, I just refuse to engage with that nonsense. I don't have any solutions for those who are impacted, other than try to build real-world connections with people. Maybe local meetups are a good option here, idk.

Good luck out there! Stay safe!

Thanks. Vest advice I have to any person looking to help, is dont just be a passive ally. Step up as an accomplice. When there's a police protected parade of alt-right demonstrators, show them that they're outnumbered. The SRA does a good job of that, as one example.

The other advice is that whatever space you exist in, be proactive in showing bigots that there's no place at the table at your club.

To anyone reading: Just dont do nothing. You are as powerful as your solidarity.
