“stop trying to bring politics into this” is such a stupid thing to say in a world where we have politicized everything. it’s not that i want everything to be political; i hate that my basic human rights are a topic of debate as much as the next woman, but the fact that they are, means the best way i can fight to keep them is by getting involved. and getting involved means talking politics because that’s the system that we live in, because humans are too ignorant and argumentative to not use every single aspect of life as a tool to gain any semblance of power
#everything is political#the only thing to do#is get involved#i wish that equality was simply a fact of life#but we haven’t reached that stage yet#and until people are more important than power#we won’t reach that stage#power is corrupting#politics#lesbian#feminism#trans rights are human rights#love is love#blacklivesmatter#yes i’m angry over tiktok comments#i think you should have to have a minimum education quotient to be able to comment something#sometimes i can feel myself regressing when i read tiktok comments#‘cis is a slur!’#no#you just don’t understand how adjectives work#‘i’m not a homophobe i just don’t agree with it’#first#you cant ‘not agree’ with a fact#i can disagree that the sky is blue but that won’t make the sky any less blue#second#disagreeing with someone’s sexuality isnt the same as not liking pineapple on pizza#one is an integral part of a person that they cannot change nor did they ask for#the other is a preference#and unless straight people have to wake up every day and choose to be straight#sexuality isn’t a choice
