There's been two movements in the US impacting this.

One, to focus more on the Pro-Palestine protests. If Gaza isn't free no one is free. Submovement: Disabled people still aren't welcome at pride. COVID is still a huge threat and most STILL aren't masking. I call it a Submovement because it was something that wasn't taken very seriously until the encampments and Pro-Palestine protests. Organizers are making it well known that masks are super important.

Second, some organizers recognize that pride as it currently stands is incredibly liberal. It requires substantial corporate backing and some are required by local legislation to have cop presence. The corps that do back pride only do so for good publicity and then turn around and fund anti queer legislation.

Also anti-queer legislation has grown exponentially...I can understand people being scared and not wanting to be open in public.

I'm not saying boo hoo suck it up these are more important. Pride is still necessary. It sucks that it's been quiet. It sucks that people have to hide in fear from sociopaths who are out to kill queer folx. I'm just telling y'all what's going on

So OP just had eggs, coffee creamer, and bread in the fridge is what I'm taking away from this. Relatable.

One person isn't the whole. They may just want to vent and aren't wanting solutions. While that may be frustrating to you, it can be just as frustrating to your SO to want to vent and get solutions they don't want

Of course I'm just some rando online I don't know your relationship. I have a BA in Human Communication and this is just one of the most common arguments that happens in relationships

Reminder that we have our email 196mods@protonmail.com

Important tool for those who have been banned and feel it undeserved, etc. While it's awesome that we have a small active community to double check the mod log and post any oddities right now, this may not always be the case. Hierarchies are wack and knowing the tools to hold people accountable is always a good thing. I do occasionally go back and check on our sent folder to see if anyone is being treated unfairly (which to be clear I haven't seen anything on the email side).

Thanks for the post ✌️

Oh cool let me try. My password is: imjustasillylilguynamedhunter2

Correct. The USA still has a substantial slave population via the prison industrial complex. Also I removed your ableist comment further down this point. Prejudice of any kind can lead to a ban.

Fuck HP. They provided the tech Israel uses to control and surveil Palestinians.

It's because only trans people can en passant. Too strong.

No but seriously this is blatant transphobia. There's no reason for this ruling. Stripping titles is just salt in the wound, wtf.

Based take.

I cannot separate the art from the artist either. Too much of her worldview exists in the media imo.
