Guy who has read 50 Hal comics: Omg Parallax is so cool

Guy who has read 100 Hal comics: Parallax was a spit in the face of his character and was rushed and barely made sense-

Tyler recognizing Zaeth because he's someone who hangs out with his bosses and owns a horse is wild. No dude this is the guy who was in his feels about the cold war and then landed in a pool so hard it slinky-ed his jaw into his chest in a way you can't make fun of. Were you not at barnabus, even if not have you had to have heard from the grapevine.

Fascinating to assume that the people who show up for DC's annual queer tokenization slopfest would participate in a boycott. There was never a reality where protesting for Black visibility was going to kill whatever queer rep they decide to throw out this year, because the queer community, especially the queer community that has money, does not care about Black people. So you mean to tell me we shut down a long telegraphed boycott out of fear of taking attention from people who have no interest in standing with us? That's where we're at? We're doing a corporation's PR for them and letting them get off the hook with not acknowledging the deficiency, and the logic is that it would be bad to step on the toes of pride???!

So my queerness is more worthy of protection than my Blackness, is that what we're saying? People talk about homophobia in the Black community, about how Black religious figures failed to make coalitions and hurt the civil rights movement, and there's value to that. But the other reality is that the wins the queer movement have gotten have disproportionately benefitted people that don't look like me.

If anything, this should be a part of the politics of the month! This IS on topic, we ARE the queer community, we always have been, and we have always been on the ground floor of every movement that pushed the needle.

But you wanted your fucking low quality corporate pandering more than anything else.

Fuck that, and you know that, fuck what pride has come to represent, and be used as a weapon against dissent.

There is a reason Israel knows that bringing up queer rights to camouflage their atrocities is worth putting money into. Because people hate spending time thinking outside themselves, especially when it comes to Black and Brown people.

DC fired a trans author because of right-wing pressure and spinelessness, but you think that the decisions they are making about queer rep are for us? You think that the organization who would do that so flippantly cares about queer lib any more than it cares about Black folk?

But this proves exactly why they do it. You will rush for any scraps they give, and then be complicit in being used as a shield for any other criticism.

Fuck outta here.
