The Quuuuuill

listen. i’ve been gay a long time. irrelevant questions like what you asked are almost never harmless. they’re almost always coming from the right. i tried to give you the benefit of the doubt and asked a simple question. “why?”

you said “i was curious” i explained where the rest of us were coming from. now you’re bombarding me, exactily like a conservative troll while calling me a conservative troll and accusing me of not being gay. that shit is not okay, and i’m gona block you. i’m still gonna give you the benefit of the doubt that you’re young and haven’t had to but up with the shit i have and explain what’s going on so maybe you can get why everyone responded to you the way you did.

there’s a conservative strategy called “Just Asking Questions” where someone is just asking innocent enough questions, or so they say. their goal is to normalize questioning the validity of the existence of gay people at all, and it often starts with asking about the true relationship between two same sex people. either it starts with asking if two business partners or gay, or asking if two men who are living as a couple could really be gay, or if it’s just a marketing strategy to sell more ice cream at their business.

that’s how your comment read to a lot of us 25yo+ queer folk. i try to be optimistic about people so i wanted to give you a chance to explain yourself. i regret it because even though you explained and i explained now you won’t leave me the fuck alone like you’re entitled to me seeing the world how you see it, explaining every little thing to you, and validating your way of doing things.

i’m also gay. your threadstarter comment reeked of projected homophobia, tbh. fwiw, i didn’t report. it just struck me as a super odd question to ask, and struck me right in the “uh oh, avoid this person, they’re a homophobe” sense

why?

remember this when you read about the french revolution

coming to a voting precinct near you sooner than you think

hence my other two comments. this goes deeper than that payment. google is deeply invested in the global mass killing machine

these are florida based cubanos mind you. the original seed population for that community was peeple who fled cuba early because it was a threat to them personally. yes, they’re worried about the civil liberties lost, but a lot of them are also salty about the loss of their profit generating sugar plantations. they don’t really engage with the positive aspects of fidel castro’s dictatorship because for them, personally, those were negative aspects.

and none of this is to discount the issues of civil liberties experience in cuba, but a lot of later people who then arrive in florida for whom things weren’t as bad on the front of wealth redistribution get bombarded by the seed population saying “see, communism and wealth redistribution always leads to problems” and that propaganda subsumes any discussion surrounding the push between centralized vs decentralized authority.

plus you got the zionist community right there pushing anticommunist propaganda and suddenly southern florida is a nightmare of a location with people pushing for centralized authority to protect them from radical leftwing ideologies like “letting people live their lives”

we tried to warn you but you bought the ticket because you were that scared of neoliberalism leading to communism through a process i can only describe as “somehow”

also google maps and waze have tons of israeli input

Israel payed a lot of money for google to push that propaganda

IDF is an org though, and he said death to that. it reads pretty clearly as bing about bringing about an end to the org to me an. the other read relies too heavily on a dictionary definition than on the types of allegory rappers engage in. but as you said, maybe that’s just me

yup i’m gonna block now that my soothing adult beverage is wearing off

dafuq? i’m saying china is a genocidal imperial regime all the time. i guess if your standard is that anyone who wants to tank the united states is maga i get the joke. just didn’t realize what you were saying

can you provide some links, i’d love to expand my horizons

what? this is my first time hearing China is MAGA. that seems patently absurd to me.

i’m just saying MAGA policies have a strong pattern of reinforcing the white supremacist systems of oppression

100%. just like every time. ethnic strife is just a tool of the oppressor

white. it means white.

“death death to the idf” =/= “death to idf troops”

and i’m tired of outlets reporting on it like it is. the man was saying the idf is a criminal organization that needs to be resisted and disbanded. yeah, that’s gonna result in some fighting because the idf are a violent and vile organization of oppressors, but in the context, “death death to the idf” is the only reasonable stance…

because none of these major publications aside from propublica and others like it value real journalism because we live in a world that is so full of the lie that getting the story first is more important than getting the story right. the guardian is better than many, but many people who work there came from news orgs that valued speed over accuracy. blame advertisers normalizing shit like getting every news org to investigate who al gore was going to pick for is running mate. a story that required no scoop. we were all gonna find out no matter what

it can, and frequently does
