Like last year they kept the rainbow flag profile pics up for the entire year. Now they aren’t doing it because they are fearful of some lumpenproletariat boycott. Reactionary workers are worse than pro-lgbt bourgeoisie. I’m gonna side with whoever respects the rights of trans people to literally exist and if neither are gonna do that then fuck both of them!
Lived experience isn't totallizing but you understand how seeing an indicator of social tolerance going away is concerning, right? Like I've helped shut down Pride before over cops and corporations but I'm also worried about the current climate, y'dig?
The question to ask right now isn't "how concerning is this really?" But "how do i support my queer comrades?"
I know that public housing would go a long way for my community right now, help us stay in the gay neighborhood, help the runaway kids get on their feet, help folks kick heroine, give us the stability to participate in our institutions. What's your local DSA up to?
As an indicator of social tolerance capitulation to reaction, I 100% agree it is concerning. I merely think the framing of choosing between "reactionary workers or pro-lgbt bourgeoisie" is harmful.
My local DSA are a bunch of Vote Blue asshats.
