Getting a little tired of the moral platitudes.

My husband is a servicemember and has been for 18 years. We now live under Mango Mussolini and his fake grunt scowl SecDef who have made their feelings on LGBT+ servicemembers clear. In the first 8 days they came for trans troops.

The next person who gives me the abjectly useless advice "talk to your neighbors" and "build a community" is getting slapped. Planting a community garden does not protect my husbands pension and healthcare (which he'll need a lot of yay burn pits, toxic waste, etc). "Mutual aid" will not ensure my spouse retires with the honor he has spent his adult life earning.

I live on a military base. My community literally cannot get more tight. Real existential issues require actual solutions, not idealism and college quadrangle activist LARPing.

Tldr; "Build a community" is the worst advice since "follow your dreams". Stop it.
