i’m a believer in if you buy a game you should receive every port of it everywhere

I also believe that companies should not charge fees to play online as you have already bought the console and the game itself.

Also, a casual reminder that the tea that was destroyed during the Boston Tea Party was expensive as shit. We aren’t talking a few boxes of Lipton chucked into the harbor.

The British East India Company reported that 340 cheats of tea were destroyed worth £9,659 (in 1773). Doing some quick math, the value of the property destroyed in the Boston Tea Party was $2,085,162.52. This was not purely a symbolic act, it was a real economic blow AND WAS INTENDED AS SUCH.

How clearly does the point need to be made that "police officer" is just a fucking job, one with minimal training and minimal monitoring. It is NOT some kind of promise of honesty, truth, or heroism. It is a bunch of assistant managers with extremely powerful weapons. IF you can understand "pedophiles choose to be priests and teachers so they can get to children", IF you understand "arsonists choose to be firefighters so they can be present at their own crimes" - then you can ALSO understand "people who are bigoted, violent, and power-hungry choose to be cops for the opportunities the job presents" and you can ALSO understand "any occupational culture that chooses fraternity over justice - and the allowance of violence in the name of a unified front - is therefore siding with their worst representatives"

Within the same thread, IF YOU ARE WHITE DO NOT LOOT OR DESTROY BUILDINGS IF YOU ARE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD YOU ARE NO FROM

You cannot recognize black-owned, other minority owned, or the businesses of our allies. ALSO, any destruction you cause will be blamed on the black people living in that area. Even if the Chief of police come out and say the majority of people arrested were from “out of state”, it will always be framed as “protesters” and “rioters”

If you are white and taking this chance to be an anarchist, you are endangering the lives of the people you claim to be supporting.

Two truths can exist at the same time: looting and riot is good, white people starting the violence is bad

This pride month more than ever the LGBTQ community needs to remember that it was Marsha P. Johnson, a black trans woman, that made where we are today possible

We need to stand with BLM and protestors just how they have stood with us

The first pride was a riot and we need to stand with them while their protests and riots go on

Nothing will change if we don’t stand with them and we need to remember the black members of our community, especially the black trans women, who are constantly being murdered by cops and their supporters

Never forget George Floyd

Actually, a black lesbian named Storme Delarverie was the one who riled up the crowd when she got arrested, and many attributed the start of the Stonewall riots to her. Afterward, she spent her whole life working to help the LGBTQIA community before dying penniless in an old folks home in Brooklyn a few years ago.

Do not forget her, do not erase her, say her name Storme Delarverie.

And please keep in mind that Stonewall was only one incident among many. There have been black and brown LGBT heroes throughout American history including James Baldwin, Bayard Rustin, Audre Lorde and Angela Davis. Celebrate Martha and Storme, but remember, they stood on someone's shoulders, too.

Thank you for clarification! I had some people correcting me as I didn’t know. Thank you for putting this into words and helping me and everyone else understand our history better. I truly appreciate this

Every time someone steps up and says who they are, the world becomes a better, more interesting place.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!
