things have to be really scary right now. I also feel it.

I tend to oppose governments specifically because they have a tendency to try to exterminate people like me. Perhaps it's my imagination then, because I can't imagine a government that could exist now and not be on the brink of doing so at any moment. Governments, for most of the time they have existed, have tried to enforce homogenatety through violence. Meanwhile, anthropology is full of examples of non-government systems that have much more complex concepts of gender and no concept of race.

I find it hard to imagine a hierarchial system that wouldn't just reinforce white supremacist cis hetero patriarchy. Meanwhile, I don't have to imagine systems that oppose it because I've been involved in organizing them.
