Same, even when i get my papers in order and am done with bottom surgery, i can never be 100% sure if the state decides to put me into men's prison for fun, and as it is now it's almost guaranteed they would do that.

This is why it's important for activists to be aware of how their comrades' marginalizations affect them, it's an actual tactical consideration when you plan any form of direct action, no matter how mild and nonviolent.
