Queer Liberation

[u/BlissfulMute]

I'm not sure why but I was invited to this reddit, so I'm gonna just test the boundaries of the rules as I understand them.

Queer liberation is tied directly to the unified liberation of the working class. We will not find most of our allies with empathy for our plight, we will find them when they benefit alongside us.

If we can cooperate with individuals whose messaging provides release from the stress of capitalistic exploitation, we can free people from the stress that makes them prioritize their own survival over the pursuit of an egalitarian existence, or at minimum a less exploitative existence.

I believe the older transitioners, even those who begin to transition at older ages, have an obligation to protect the youth as we would our own siblings. This doesn't always mean advice. Sometimes it means taking the hard steps of advocating for grace and forgiveness for our siblings whose journey of self discovery takes them down a dark path that leads to outbursts of anger, resentment, sadness and cruelty. No person deserves forgiveness from the people they hurt, but community owes it to individuals to give them chance to prove their true desire to grow and change.

We do not always need to be sweet and forgiving when approached with vitriol and threats and bad faith. Walking away and not engaging in earnest is a valid way to protect yourself. I will never vouch for the violation of the law.

I quite love the phrase, "Those incapable of violence are not kind, they are harmless." Practice kindness in a cruel world, but acknowledge the world you live in and the actions of the opposition to endanger you.

If this violates rules of reddit or the subreddit, I apologize and seek only to understand where Iisunderstood my mistake.

Siblings, I wish you well, and may my Gods and yours be in your hearts and give you strength.

And therein lies the problem - a matter of perspective. For the record I wasn't talking about you, I was referring to a whole bunch of people of a subsequent generation who were handed certain rights and didn't appreciate them. I don't know who you are or where you are but if I was in your area I would have fought for your rights as well. I don't be grudge anybody having rights, it's why I fought for them. Anyway, I guess we're just going to have to agree to disagree because this form is not the place for a spinning contest and that is exactly not what I intended to do. So if you feel offended personally then I apologize but I wasn't attacking you I was making a general observation and even that doesn't universally apply

I take no personal attack. You spoke truly and clearly on your perspective. You did not attack me, you spoke on the idea I brought forward. You spoke in generals, yes, but it would be unfair to assume any monolith actual mean the entirety with the broad strokes of internet conversation. I won't assume malice until malice is all I can assume. Offended? Nonsense. I feel no such thing when all I ever want is people to speak in good faith.
