I’m just here to remind everyone once again that we can’t stop protesting and boycotting and spreading the word for Palestine, even if it’s been a while. The people in power (mainly the Israeli and US governments) are relying on us losing steam.

And I do want to mention that a small bit of hope to be found among all of this is that things aren’t losing steam. I still see dozens of posts about Palestine every day, I see footage of protests almost every day, and the boycotts are working. I just want to encourage everyone that we just need to keep it up! I’ve seen so many social issues fade out over time, a week of outrage and then things settle down, but that isn’t the case here and I really respect everyone who’s still posting and protesting and seeking out information to end this once and for all. Focus on that hope, and use it to keep going :)

100% Disagree

It’s an underdog story about classism in which the folk hero (Johnny) is confronted by a powerful man (the Devil) who tries to exploit the hero’s perceived ignorance and inferiority by offering a great reward with impossible odds. Although Johnny warns him that looks can be deceiving, and that he’s going to regret the dare because Johnny is the “best there’s ever been”, the devil is blinded by his greed and arrogance.

The devil creates an awful cacophony of technically excellent fiddle playing that would be impossible for Johnny to replicate. It’s a trick.

But Johnny just grins at him and starts to play “simple” classic country fiddling songs - Fire On The Mountain, House Of The Rising Sun, and Daddy Cut Her Bill Off. He doesn’t rise to beat the Devil - he simply creates his own music from his home, in the style that he knows, and his love of it and the familiarity of the music make his “backwoods” fiddling more perfect than the Devil could ever achieve.

It is thus the devil’s pride, not Johnny’s, that allows Johnny to Bugs Bunny his way into a golden fiddle.

(In that sense, I do agree that it is the most American song: in a land of prejudice and inequities, great power lies - dormant but ever-present - in those we underestimate and attempt to exploit.)

Also people initially react to the devil's part like "holy shit that's badass" because he's got electric guitar and bass and a whole backing band to make him sound good. Of course he sounds amazing. But if you drill down to the actual fiddling -- and this is straight from Charlie Daniels -- it's not as technically difficult as what Johnny does. It's fast? But it's mostly just going up and down scales.

Here's a good performance -- the devil's part starts around 2:00. Check out how long Daniels just stands there holding his fiddle while the guitar and piano carry the weight. I love that piano bassline but fiddling it ain't.

It's still an American narrative: if you can afford to hire a bunch of more talented people, you, too, can look like a genius. Doesn't make you one.

When bisexual girls are in relationships with men, we’re assumed to be heterosexual. That being interested in women never mattered, that if we’re in a straight-passing relationship, we’re straight now.

The thing that a lot of ppl don’t realize, is that when we’re with a girl, it doesn’t magically undo the bi-erasure. Now, bisexual girls are assumed to be lesbians. Now, being interested in men never mattered, a bisexual girl in a lesbian-passing relationship is lesbian now.

We get erased from all sides. Poison Ivy gets the same treatment irl bisexuals do, and it’s aggravating to see even a beloved fictional character get her identity erased.

[bisexual-coala]

I recently only Harlivy both getting called lesbians... look at the likes. Bi erasure is so rampant

[bi-dykes]

LITERALLY. Like 4 writers have confirmed Ivy is bisexual, and only 1 said that she’s lesbian, which you can’t, like, retcon what previous writers stated. Willow Wilson was misinformed by saying that.

As for Harley, 2 writers have said she’s bisexual, and NONE have said she’s a lesbian. These arguments against Harlivy’s bisexuality are literally underresearched >:(
