#& to my fellow white queers: get used to breaking the law; get used to inconvenience and discomfort; get used to putting up resistance!

the only thing i'm gonna say about the american election is this: if you're white and you're out here spreading doomer shit like "all the queer people in america will be killed by 2028" (a real comment i saw someone make!), i think you should kill yourself, actually! because it sure sounds to me like you're dedicated to being completely useless and have no interest in getting involved in any sort of movement or organization dedicated to providing much needed aid at home or abroad. like, if you're so sure that resistance is impossible and the only thing standing between lgbt people and complete annihilation was a kamala harris presidency, then you might as well lay down and die! because you know what? right now, there are real people actually dying in an actual genocide as a result of america's current democrat president, and they sure as fuck aren't my fellow white queers of tumblr.
get organized locally or online. reach out to your neighbors. boost and donate to palestinians. read some theory. read any of the resources i've reblogged today. just do anything other than accept defeat like a fucking coward!
#beldam speaks: being shady#mutuals: this isn't about you; and tbh this isn't about anyone who follows me (i hope!) but i want to clarify--#im not asking you to overcome your disability or put yourself in the line of fire; i am asking all of us to put aside learned helplessness#and begin to make the world we want to see by taking actual steps towards organizing in whatever way is accessible to you!#& to my fellow white queers: get used to breaking the law; get used to inconvenience and discomfort; get used to putting up resistance!#and do it for more than just your own sake and for more than just the black and brown people you know-- do it for the sake of strangers!#finally to ward off dumb fights: don't get on me for telling people to kts okay?? it should be clear i am exaggerating for effect.
