General Discussion

Isn't it exhausting? To put such inconsequential things in these outrageously apocalyptic terms all of the time?

I don't care. I've read his remarks. Outside of one f-word in 2018 that isn't even directed at gay people, there's really nothing there I haven't heard a thousand times from gay and straight men alike. If he were still talking like this as a politician, ok, maybe we can have that conversation. But I haven't seen anything recent.

I do care about policies. And I've watched people who are currently reaching for the salts defend politicians whose policies either created tangible harm to the community or excused it away or allowed it to happen because it was in their political interest to be effectively indifferent in action while still maintaining the performance.

I've seen our community go under the bus for the sake of the powerful for so long. This, "But past language!" just betrays a lack of seriousness or proportionality. It feels utterly insincere. If it actually is genuine, then I question priorities.

I'm sorry. Girl. Be for real for real with this.
