Queer The Way | Documentary, 2024

In Namibia, Friedel Dausab has waited 30 years to take on his government and challenge the criminalisation of homosexuality. He risks his personal safety and carries the hopes of all Queer Namibians seeking liberation, safety and the freedom to love. Against a backdrop of a serial killer targeting queer people, he goes to court. A vital record of the unsung heroes of queer liberation, Queer The Way charts the journeys of three remarkable activists who defiantly challenge the criminalisation of same sex love. Their personal stories intersect with the shocking history of criminalisation and colonialism. From Tudor England to today’s US Evangelical Church stoking hatred and violence, this essential documentary reveals the ongoing impact of politics and religion on the everyday lives of Queer people.

Yall remember how Texas had that "report an abortion" form that they had to take down after a week?

Well, Missouri has one, only it's for reporting transgender concerns.

Comrades. Friends. Romans. Countrymen. You know what to do.

Chappell Roan, a lesbian, went on a national broadcast tonight and performed a song about dating a closeted woman who refuses to acknowledge their relationship and denies the fact that she’s a lesbian. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that happening but here we are and it’s amazing.

As a lesbian woman, to have an artist go out and be so entirely herself in every way, to be so proud of her own sexuality and to perform a song like this and have it be broadcasted to millions of people…it makes me so emotional. All I have ever wanted as a queer woman is to have this sort of unabashed representation and we’re finally getting it in such an incredible way. What an era we are living in and all I can say is long may it continue and I am so proud to be a Chappell Roan fan.

I feel like Damian would simply not give a shit about people’s sexualities and gender fuckery. Casssteph lesbians??? Cool, refrain from the noise. Tim wearing fem clothes? Amazing, that skirt is horrendous and it makes my eyes hurt. Dick and being into boys? So true, Richard, why are all of these men dumb as rocks? Bruce being bi? Father, please stop pining over these stupid men. Two face??? The ghost guy?? HAL JORDAN????????

people think he’d be prejudice because….his family is Arab? Because he’s a dick sometimes? No offense but Ra’s fucked a girl at Woodstock and that’s how he had Talia. He wants the universe to die, I don’t think he cares about gay people. He cares about killing Batman. I just don’t think Talia or ra would be instilling beliefs like that. I think they teach him humans are scum and shit but like not homophobia can u guys get fucking real. Like maybe a teacher he had could have persuaded him or he could come to these beliefs on his own from the hatred he is being taught but I really need some of you to get real. He’s not homophobic sasuke.

Flashback to that one moment where it felt like I'd found an aroace cheatcode on life somehow

My body is a collection of all the parts that came before! 🌱🌱🌱

[Image ID: A drawing of a trans masculine person, nude except for underwear. The figure has top surgery scars, and no head, the bottom of a jaw bone with plants growing from it floating above the neck. There are flowers, mushrooms, and stars surrounding the figure, and a bird flying to the left of the canvas. /. End ID]

I love how intricate asexuality can be. No sex at all? Sure! Just want to watch? Brilliant! Only comfortable with topping? You go girl! Only rarely feel aroused and when you do it's very touch and go? Wonderful! Kinky but not in a sex way? Coolio! Queerness is full of nuance and people are complicated and things never live in a vacuum!!

Kamala Harris does want "transgender surgery on illegal aliens that are in prison", btw.

So since Trumpists are getting mad enough about the jokes to actually cite their sources, I thought I'd put the source out into my left extremist commie faggot echo chamber, too.

The claim originates from an ACLU questionnaire she filled out for her 2020 presidential candidacy, specifically this section:

She wasn't given a new questionnaire for 2024, and has stated that while her policy on some things may have changed, her values had not. (This most likely means she moved more to the center to appease larger demographics and cut corners to reach compromises. The basic politician stuff.)

It boils down to this: If you're in prison, whether for "illegal" immigration or other crimes, you rely on the state to provide you with necessary amenities, like food and health care. Her argument isn't "hell yeah everyone in prison should get sex changes for free". It's "gender affirming surgery is a necessary medical procedure. If you are in the states care while this becomes necessary, the state should provide it." If you're outraged by your tax money being used on this, consider the massive amount of people being incarcerated in for-profit prisons, on your dime. Then ask yourself if maybe a prison reform might be in order.

Worth noting: In 2015, while Attorney General, Kamala Harris actually argued against providing gender-affirming surgery to an incarcerated trans woman, claiming that HRT and psychotherapy were sufficiently covering her medical needs. She has since obviously changed her stance and assumed responsibility. (I would like to take this moment to remind my fellow left extremist commie faggots that "willingness to learn and rethink your views" is infinitely more valuable than "perfect from the start and unwilling to listen to anyone")

Also found in the source: This image of Kamala Harris participating in the 2019 San Francisco Pride Parade, wearing what I believe to be a sequin rainbow embroidered denim jacket.

I encourage you to read the provided CNN article and the answers to the ACLU questionnaire, as they give great insight into her values.

TLDR: Based.

'nobody's gonna call you frog/frogself irl lol' did you know. did you know that auxiliary(link) pronouns are a thing, and neopronoun users tend to have them? did you know that people like me will accept the usage of 'normal' pronouns in the place of our heavily preferred neopronouns, because we know how much hassle it can be to get people to use them? did you know that we also fucking exist in the real world, or have you convinced yourself that neopronouns are simply an online fad only seen in online spaces?

the "i love weird unpalatable queerness" leaving tumblr users' bodies when they see a polyamorous person
