Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Thank you for keeping me safe dirt owl. Guessing my therapist can vouch for my gender dysphoria too.
I’d be happy to help you in any way I can to leave the country if you ever felt the need. I’m sure others here could help too depending on the country you wanna go to or can go to.
ty
idk how concerned I should be
It's always a good idea to maybe contact an org that might have your back if shit hits the fan, some kind of support network at least.
Unconcerned.
If a draft does happen, just don't report. It will be stressful but its doubtful that the US policing forces will be able to do both "deporting all brown people" duty and "rounding up everybody who didn't report for the draft" duty.
Shit, when you do regular military service you are expected to do a "Reserve" stint that lasts some amount of years after your active duty term is over. Thing is, unless you did some really niche job, nobody is going to take the time to hunt you down if you don't report to a reserve unit. Even with all the "we never meet recruiting numbers" articles and "retention is horrible" articles.
