wearing nail paint and makeup and reading Anarchism and The Black Revolution in a Drs office waiting room surrounded by karens in rural alabama is the most fun a gay latino guy can have with his clothes on

transphobic "leftists"

its crazy you see "leftists" being transphobic

you guys do get that transphobia/homophobia is all right wing bullshit right? the same people youre "against" right? trans people have existed for hundreds of years and we will continue to, and binary gender bullshit is all nazi white supremacist bullshit.

youre insane if you try to call yourself a leftist while saying that shit, when we want equality we want it for EVERYONE, when we want healthcare it INCLUDES TRANS PEOPLE, when we want safety we want to keep TRANS PEOPLE SAFE TOO. it isnt that fucking hard.

either youre obviously lying about it or you need to educate yourself on the basics

It is always time to move the Overton window as far to the left as possible. Do not compromise with fascists. Let’s reverse this bullshit violent trend.

something happened recently in my small town that i think is a microcosm of white “liberalism”. it’s not a secret that since a new juvenile detention center was built a few years ago, the high and middle schools have been targeting young black men, particularly young black men with special needs/mental illness/disabilities to fill it with. the school administrators and our local judge, a corrupt, nasty, crooked white woman, are rumoured to be making a ton of money as a part of this conspiracy. my grandmother, an advocate for special needs children, and my dad and aunt(teachers), have watched the school to prison pipeline with their own eyes, and my grandmother and several others in town have been trying to build a case for years against the judge and other corrupt individuals. recently however, an old white widow who has been a teacher at the high school for almost 50 years, and beloved by all, was fired for saying the n-word. she heard some students saying it and took a few minutes to educate them on why it’s racist to say it, but in doing so, she said it several times. some students videoed her and cut it up to make it seem like she was the racist one. the school promptly fired her. i think that’s a perfect representation of white “liberalism”. actively participating in systemic racism but robbing an old widow of her livelihood to maintain the superficial image of being politically correct.

Every day I wake up I write for gay rights not because I want to fight the homophobes but because I want gays to see there are people who care for them.

Every day I wake up I write for transgender rights not because I want to fight transphobes but because I want transgender kids to know they are not alone in the world.

Every day I wake up I write for women's rights not because I want to fight sexist people but because I want women to know they are not powerless

Every day I wake up I write for the working class not because I want to hurt rich people but because I want the working class to see that they deserve better.

WAKE UP WE NEED HEALERS.
