One thing about me is that I refuse to be ignorant. Drop book recommendations about any subject in my inbox. It can range from fiction, to countries, to history, to feminist/race/queer theory, to even folklore, just drop recommendations please.

Kind of bleak that we’ll never achieve racial unity because of almost every racial group’s obsessive hatred for black people

[lamiafemme]

You really start to understand that the “angry black woman” and “mean lesbian” stereotype only exists to shame us for the fact we get reasonably upset about people wanting to horrifically abuse us indiscriminately. Let’s get meaner !

SINNERS 2025 — dir. Ryan Coogler

[hazemsuhail]

If this page suddenly goes silent one day, know that my brother Samer didn’t make it. I will never forget those who saw him suffering from severe bombing injuries, lacking his vital medications, yet chose silence and kept scrolling.

[hazemsuhail]

I feel completely shattered and deeply ashamed begging strangers for help every single day. This endless nightmare has stripped us of everything, forcing me to sacrifice even my own dignity just to keep my brother and my family alive.

[hazemsuhail]

​I want nothing from this world except to see Samer healthy and free of pain, and to save my family from this slow death. Please donate so we can afford his essential psychiatric and medical treatments before it’s too late.

Please Please donate GoFundMe

[hazemsuhail]

I swear these donations are our only way out. Please keep supporting us to save my brother Samer. 🙏

Samer's life depends on the next hand that reaches out to him. Please don't just share this post. Help us keep his heart beating.

Desperately begging white leftists like this comedian to shut up and stop giving us their takes on why poor working class white Republicans continue to vote against their interests. Hint: it's not just becos wealthy Democrats can be condescending and out of touch with the working class It's also becos a lot of poor working class white pple are also fucking bigots who'd rather chew off their own arm than see marginalised pples have rights. Why is it so difficult to understand this?? 🤡

[icedsodapop]

Same goes for white women who vote for Trump or the fucking log cabin Republicans. Yall just can't seem to understand that a lot of the times, people can just be bigots who only care for their own bags.

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.

[calciumcryptid]

Since I'm getting people on my post going "Um, actually, the choice to make a work apolitical is an act of politics itself", I thought I'd make some degree of an addition.

I understand people who set out to make apolitical work are making a political act by trying and failing to devoid it of politics; however, they, by their own admission, aren't making a work with political intent in their mind.

That is the core of what this post is about, the misunderstanding of "All Art is Political" as everything is made with some degree of political intent instead of it's actual meaning of all work reveals the political climate it is made in whether it is the surrounding politics or the individual creator's politics and what it says about their worldview.

Someone in the notes put it best when comparing it to someone drawing a horse. Someone drawing a single horse isn't going to draw one with political intent, but how they draw the horse reveals their own worldview such as the breed, the style, the location, whether it has horse riding gear or doesn't, etc.

The same goes for politics. People may go into creating something without political intent, or the intention to not make it political, but it doesn't stop the work from reflecting their own political views and general worldview.

The fact that the TADC movie is coming out on Juneteenth, an important black holiday, when only one of the characters is a POC and one of the VAs was exposed for being racist. Yeah Gooseworx you're going straight to hell
