Man, I hate identity politics. It really has been an extremely useful tool to get the wealthy to divide us so that we won’t care about our own deliberate impoverishment.

At the same time, whenever someone is mean to my trans homies I want to punch them in the throat.

Identity politics is considered tailism for a reason.

I’ve grown fond of “Don’t give a fuck if you don’t like me, we have to exist on this marble together, so how about we work to make it better”.

We’re all in the shit together, but if they wanna make it smell worse, they deserve the punch.

Limiting the ability to tread on others IS treading on them! …to them

Sir, please be respectful of the flag and use its’ proper name:

No Step on Snek

Agreed.

I just wish we could get people to care as much about the wages they’re being paid as they do about people using slurs.
