    i was assaulted by a fascist last year. a few months ago i was walking down the main street in my city and there was a fascist (anti-immigration) march on. i lost the head seeing everyone just watch them go by as if it’s normal, started screaming at them and shit. a fascist on the outskirts started being transphobic to me so i spat at his feet and he punched me in the head lol. it was a completely pathetic punch so i was more or less fine. but put me in a really bad mood so i just turned around and went home instead of seeing a friend that day like I was meant to. i feel like i did the right thing but it was also a little reckless cause i was on my own. but they’re definitely not sending their best anyway.

        glad i could share. yeah, i was satisfied that i decided to do at least something, the lucky part was that i decided to just walk away instead of fighting back which would have been really foolish. the guy alone was no threat to me but i could have gotten jumped by the surrounding fascists if i escalated. the thing i couldn’t bear was seeing all the regular folks just standing by and watching, that really disgusted me and made me see red.
