     @EU_Commission Hi! Can i get married? in Poland? To a boy? Or at least can you force Poland to establish hate speech and hate crime laws? No?

     Them sorry, but I think I WILL be afraid. Since, you know, there is no special punishment in Poland if homophobes would beat gays for being gays.

     I suppose you understand my reasoning...?

     @EU_Commission I have every right to be afraid, so don’t tell me not to be afraid.
     There’s too much violence against LGBTIQ*.
     The anti-LGBTIQ* laws in Poland and Hungary are tolerated.
     I’m afraid, since anti-trans rhetorics are getting widespread and authorities are not doing anything against that.
     The EU will follow in US and UK’s footsteps this way.

     @EU_Commission How can we not be afraid when you threaten to send our private communications to anti-queer authoritarians? Don’t tell us to not be afraid, just stop #chatcontrol

     @EU_Commission Posting this a few days after promoting #ChatControl requires #DoubleThink; holding two conflicting beliefs simultaneously. As people have pointed out, #MassSurveillance puts marginalized groups at higher risk, which sadly includes LGBTIQ folk.

     Looks like #NineteenEightyFour is today, in the #EU.
