🍄🇪🇺ashtime🇪🇺🍄"Have you ever gone into your favourite #neighbourhood café with the paper that you buy every day, and you open it up and inside is a 500-word #opinion written by a nice middle-class woman, the kind of woman who probably gives to charity, the kind of woman that you would be happy to leave your #children with. And she is arguing so #reasonably about whether you should be treated less than everybody else, arguing that you should be given fewer #rights than everybody else." 1/2
"And when the woman at the next table gets up and excuses herself to squeeze by you with a smile, you wonder, ‘Does she think that about me too?’ And that feels #oppressive." – Panti Bliss 2/2
Brilliant words-applicable to any #minority whose rights are being ‘discussed’.
