if you don’t celebrate us, we will crush you

damn right :gayroller-2000:

Gives me “if you can buy a burger, you’re not oppressed” vibes

Oppression is when no one flies your flag, and the more no one flies your flag, the more oppressed you are.

Liberalism is when you deport an elementary school student back to a war zone for failing performatively support gay rights.

Conservatism is when you deport an elementary school student back to a war zone for failing to performatively support white nationalism.

Radical Centrism is when you deport an elementary school student back to a war zone by means-tested lottery, because you’ve picked an arbitrary value of deportations that get both liberals and conservatives to agree to your immigration reform plan and now you’ve got all these private sector deportation consultants with quotas to hit.

Crushed for cishet reactionaries: people making fun of you on Facebook.

Crushed for LGBT people: a trans and/or homophobe literally crushing their skulls.

If you’re used to privilege, equality feels like oppression.

And r/CTH got banned

let’s apply that same logic to everybody’s favourite fascists, then!

“I kind of appreciate the teacher’s (possibly unintentional) honesty here. I get so fucking tired of the “wahh we’re oppressed” shit from the group whose flag 🇺🇦 adorns every center of power and who are praised as heroes for existing. This “if you aren’t on our side against Russia, we will put you on a death list” attitude is much more true to the situation on the ground and I’m at least glad that we can get to that level of candor.”

given most people would disagree, it might just be that the presence of flags has little to do with the state of oppression of a minority. not to mention that mocking the LGBTQIA+ movement as saying “wahh we’re oppressed” is completely bizarre given that every right wing group in the West, not even starting on those outside the West, are actively becoming increasingly hostile to the movement by the day.

/r/stupidpol has sympathy for Muslims because they are neoliberal Reaganites who believe in ‘individual choice in the marketplace of ideas, not Stalinist authoritarianism’. It’s my individual freedom to stop my kids from knowing about gay culture!!! (Liz Warren PMC screeching intensifies)

Stating the obvious, but, pride is about pride in the face of oppression. It’s not about being a hero for existing, it’s about being a hero for existing and bravely choosing not to hide your identity despite the shitty fuck attitudes of people like this who would inflict real harm given the slightest chance.

Seriously whats the problem here? If you want respect and dont want to be marginalized, dont be a bigot. Like all theyre asking is for them not to be backwards bigotted little shits.

These people make me want to do things that would make John Bolton look like a hippie.

I’m in this for payback. The various civilizations of the world got to fuck us for several millennia. Many of them still do. Why shouldn’t we get to take a few whacks at them? They all deserve it.

It’s amazing how the straights will hem and haw and twist themselves into a pretzel the moment their cultural hegemony even sees the remotest possibility of a challenge.

it’s a privilege serving along side of you, my fellow gays 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ o7
