Seeing news articles along the lines of "we need to take back pride from radical activists."
Like, dude, we are celebrating the anniversary of when butch lesbians, trans women, drag queens, homeless gay kids, and queer prostitutes chased cops into the Stonewall they were kicked out of -- AND THEN TRIED TO SET THE PLACE ON FIRE. With the cops inside.
I'm trying to figure out how that wasn't radical activism, but trans people asking for human rights is too radical. Fuck that.
@joelle Where are people writing these articles coming from? Until the mainstream started openly including queer people (Often for self serving purposes.), the mainstream regarded pretty much all of Pride as “radical” at the time.
Who do the people writing these articles think these non-“radical” people were? How were they not “radical”? And how were they not labelled “radical” at the time?
@joelle I notice thick-as-pigshitposter Masto Instadon’t “detriotriotcity.com” (Red flag, anyone?) has arrived to urinate on our conversation.
Everyone: block the shitposters. And! Block the domain “detriotriotcity.com”. Here’s one of their users.
