WOAH! Allies?! ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING THAN TWEETING FOR ONCE?! Well, I'll be damned. Ok, so, me being a shithead aside, this is very cool and I'm very thankful. For real. <3

They're really trying to take everything back to the 1950s: civil rights, women's rights and corruption in government. Interesting.

At least it's not reached the pouring acid into a public pool full of black children point... Yet. 😶🥹🤢
These are fledgling Nazis, still trying to see what they can get away with first. We cannot allow them any leeway, friends & neighbors. Please, do what you can. 🙇🏼♂️

Without the good paying jobs and the healthier environment. MAGA republicans want all the cons.

I'm not blaming the fencing community, they're really stuck. I'm blaming the fascist government currently in power.

I see many of the comments are knee-jerk and they did not read the article where the Minnesota division states: “Trans and nonbinary fencers belong here, and we see you.”
