Yeah, I wanted to get active in my local "queer" stuff and it's too much infighting and the well-off people dominate and make it into like protest pyramid schemes and municipality funded cop hugging parades... I am also autistic, but besides professional ngo career people there is no one speaking in our name in my place and the ngo people are doing a godawful job obviously. My idealist impulses said that solidarity needs to like make a comeback (if it ever was there)but obv it's not that easy
