the thing about the executive order calling for the institutionalization of mentally ill people and people with addictions who "cannot care for themselves" is that someone like me, despite being mentally ill and unable to care for myself, is low risk. i have an apartment, i have caregivers, i have involved family. someone in my situation or similar is unlikely to wind up institutionalized because of this executive order.

the people who are most likely to wind up institutionalized because of this executive order are people experiencing domestic violence, and people who are currently homeless. this order instructs state governments that they can apply laws around institutionalization extremely loosely to cover just about any homeless person. the explicit text of the order talks about "fighting vagrancy." this loose interpretation can also be used when abusers seek to have their victims institutionalized, and will allow laws preventing that to be loosened.

this is not an order saying that every single mentally ill/disabled person will be institutionalized. this order is part of the war on the poorest americans, the most vulnerable. this is class warfare, as waged by democratic and republican state and local governments alike since the supreme court grants pass decision.

to respond to this order effectively, we (housed mentally ill/disabled people), have to show up for our homeless neighbors. we can't consider street homeless people a lost cause. they are our comrades, our neighbors, members of our communities. when i was more mobile, i used to show up at encampments with a cooler of water bottles and popsicles on hot summer days, and use that to build a relationship, start asking people what they needed, what would help their communities. look into unhoused organizing and activism where you live. there are people already doing this work. if you want to fight widespread institutionalization, that's where you need to start.

The next discourse is that trans men have privilege over cis women. Anyone who says "how does this work like materially" and or "how does this apply to closeted/non passing/non western trans men" will be met with 'lol are you saying trans men aren't men???????? CHECK MATE'
