When the bar turns into a nazi bar run by a guy that loves to talk shop with nazis, you walk out. You don't keep going because you have to hit all the bars.
At some point you either take a stand or you are part of the problem.
Imagine Cameron having to meet all the EU leaders.
Like when that one manager comes back after an "extended absence" where everyone knows EXACTLY what he did, but HR have banned you all from talking about it.
Rebecca Watson @rebeccawatson@emeier so, orange county republicans also aren't marginalized people held in an open air prison without the right to vote or move freely. why do you think I used them as the metaphor for Palestinians despite that? cmeier @cmeier@rebeccawatson Because you just blithely tossed off a comment w/out thinking very deeply about all of the implications. ยัง Rebecca Watson @rebeccawatson@cmeier yeah this one is on me for thinking. I could teach a grow adult how metaphors work. Nov 3, 2023 at 7:30 PM via Ivory for iOS
The thing you should fear about #christainnationalists isn’t that they’ll rise up against the government.
It’s that you’ll wake up one day and realize that your rights are gone, and that you have no power to stop it. That you’ll wake up again and again less and less free. That the people who claimed to protect you were either unable or unwilling in the first place.
@flexghost Here’s what people tend to overlook when people think Christian nationalist will get stomped by the US armed forces, law enforcement, agencies.
Many of them ARE in our armed forces, law enforcements, and angencies.
Y’all need to realize most Christian Nationalists aren’t just Cletus’ with hunting rifles and pick up trucks. That it’s actually a well armed well funded movement by wealthy people, and has been making massive political gains in the last 3 years.
If you really care about the #lgbtq community, and the #radicalization against them, you will stop leading people there, and forcing people to be on there to interact with you.
Just look at your own website! The only way to leave a comment is through a tweet. You are part of the problem.
You don't owe authenticity to anyone you don't feel safe around.
So to those who need to hear it, it's okay. Tell your dad church was great. laugh at your mom's insensitive joke. smile and nod as your sister goes off on Palestinians and gay people.
Do what you need to do to get to the end of the day with as little conflict as possible. Not everyone is in a position to tell people to fuck off, especially if you're dependent on them.
