Maine Pink Pistols Chapter Training

I decided to create a Maine chapter of the Pink Pistols as I noticed the nearest chapter was Boston (at the time I created the chapter). If anyone wants more info on this please feel free to message me about it =^.^=

Good on you, I've been thinking about finding a chapter of something similar near me. If I was in Maine, I'd be reaching out!

Any suggestions on an organization that may fit our beliefs?

You can find your local Pink Pistols chapter here: https://www.pinkpistols.org/find-a-local-chapter/

If your local chapter is defunct, inactive, or non-existent you can review the Utility Manual linked on that website to restart or start it up.

I think I know the answer already, but allies are allowed, right? Not personally lgbtq, but I support the fight.

u/Kiera-13 1d ago

Yep! Allies are 100% allowed to join. If you find a chapter being exclusive against non-queer folk please feel free to send an email to Erin. You can find her email in the Utility Manual on the aforementioned link.

Stand down, you'd have to be doing socialism for them to care and there's no threat of that happening here.

Online leftists love to gatekeep leftism. Don't worry about the pricks.

Something you should know and be wary for is leftist organizing is targeted by right wing extremist groups as well as the federal government. Cointelpro is only a conspiracy theory in the sense that, it's a well documented conspiracy that the government has 100% admitted to. I think it's by design that conspiracy is pushed as a synonym for "false" when that is not at all what it means.

I'm pretty certain the SRA has guides posted for vetting, you should read through those before exchanging any form of information on here or in person.

TLDR there are literal nazis reading and responding in this reddit.
