As an activist, I really only have one expectation of people: to leave space for activism.

Don't trivialize problems, don't actively demotivate people who are working on the solutions, don't get in the way of those solutions. Leave room for them in conversations. Let activists do their job.

I'm not even expecting everyone to become an activist, or to become 'politically active'. But I *do* expect you to let us do our job, and that is an expectation that I will not yield on.
