once one of my friends moms told me flat-out my face was lopsided and uneven. i had never thought of it that way before. this normally amazing, feminist, and strong woman told her daughters friend that her face was lopsided. i understand that you may have been wanting to boost you daughter’s self-esteem (that was the discussion in the car at the time) but you don’t insult...

yes! you’re right! it shouldn’t matter that you’re white, poc, cis, trans*, straight or queer!
BUT IT FUCKING DOES!!! AND INSTEAD OF IMAGINING WE LIVE IN A BEAUTIFUL AND NON BIGOTED SOCIETY, DO SOMETHING TO IMPROVE THE BIGOTED SYSTEM WE LIVE IN AND STOP ARGUING WITH OPPRESSED GROUPS ABOUT HOW IT ‘SHOULD’ BE PERFECT. MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!

something about institutionalized discrimination...
during the Red Scare, there were a lot of things it was dangerous to be: foreign, poor, an artist, and for some reason, gay.
so, let’s talk about that reason.
gay people were super in the closet, and if people knew you were gay, you could be considered an enemy of the state, a danger to society, automatically labelled as a leftist or a spy, and denied work just about anywhere.
