there isn't any afaik i just wanted to say they're good

People on masto have been taking down the bullshit reactionary arguments about how Pride is "inappropriate for children". Mads has talked about how those arguments relate to transmisogyny.

Apologies if I've missed it, but I'd like to briefly add that all these arguments are also racist, white supremacist specifically.

The hypothetical Child in these arguments, so innocent and fragile and needing of protection, is white. In reality, actual children of color, especially black children, face violence from fash and white supremacists and imperialists on all fronts. I'm going to let black people take the lead in discussing any details, but the information is out there if you look for it.

Also, at least on tumblr, while many well-meaning, good faith people may reblog "Pride is inappropriate for children" posts, the origins of the posts are fash and crypto-fash blogs. The fact that there is still hysteria about Pride parades in a year where a global pandemic has delayed parades indefinitely, indicates to me that most of these posts are a fascist, transmisogynist, racist psy-op.

conservatives on twitter posting pics of tagged up and toppled george washington statues like “this is what antifa wants” and im like “fuck yea, dude. thats dope.”

Dismantle the whole idea of “high tech”. Why isn’t a sewing machine considered as high tech? How many tech-bros are able to handle a sewing machine? How many woman were and are fabricating protective masks for the pandemic by operating a sewing machine? How many provide clothes for the whole planet since centuries? Not only the work is undervalued but also their technical skills.

nobody can stop me from uwuing. or owoing. theres fuck all u can do. fuck u

Y’all: Rioting and looting doesn’t do anything.

Historians: The only thing in history that has worked for the general public inciting change has been a riot,a protest, or a looting- like the Civil Rights Movement, Suffragettes, and Stonewall.

Y’all: Well, violence isn’t the answer

Historians: MLK was peaceful and you still shot him dead, and America is one of the most historically violent countries in the world, how ironic.

JUST SAY YOU DON’T SUPPORT BLACK LIVES MATTER AND LEAVE instead of finding an excuse as to why you shouldn’t care that again and again and again Black people are completely brutalised by police and police are never criminalized for it.

Never let them tell you the "radical Antifa terrorist left" is pushing gun control. The left has always been armed (see the black panthers and EZLN, both of whom knew that armed community defense was vital in the struggle against capital and the state). And when 2A chuds talk about armed rebellion against a tyrannical government...

well, you know what they say about stopped clocks.
