People seem a little confuse about responsibility to fight oppression.
If there is a system that oppresses and kills people for YOUR benefit, you are morally obligated to oppose it. Even if you yourself did not commit a crime, it is for YOU.
Yes, I'm talking to you, white people, men, cis people, heterosexual people, rich people. We ALL are *morally obligated* to tear apart a system that hurts other people for our benefit.

@mattgen88 Hi Matt! Welcome (or welcome back)!

"Why Have We Soured on the 'Devil’s Advocate'?" by Nitsuh Abebe https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/03/magazine/why-have-we-soured-on-the-devils-advocate.html
This is a good piece on why it's so hard to have reasoned debates online.
Been around for a few months... Time for an #introduction!
I'm Melissa (they/them)! Some of my projects are in my bio, but in general I am and do:
#gamedev & #podcasting
#gardening #succulents #cacti
#asexual / #grayace / #panromantic / #queer
#polyamory #relationshipanarchy
#writer #webdev #language
#socialjustice / #feminist / #intersectionalfeminism / more things I'm still learning about 🤓
Don't put too much emphasis on the order of those; if I could prioritize them, I'd sleep more. 😉
Can you imagine how much more effective communities would be if people actually just bucked the fuck up and said,
"What I said was antiblack and I shouldn't have said it. It hurt people and it was wrong. I'm sorry and thank you to the people who corrected me. I'll try harder next time."
wow
amazing
revolutionary
I don't want it to end, but I think that I'll be finishing Night in the Woods on this stream.
@howaboutudance Welcome! Hope you enjoy it here! Public health is a super interesting field and I've learned a lot from my friends with that background.
I also picked up the first two years of Check, Please! by @ngoziu at ECCC. It's the super sweet story of a queer college student and his journey joining the school's hockey team. http://checkpleasecomic.com/comic/01-01-01
@Belsima terrifying
Another of my favorite comic purchases from ECCC was As the Crow Flies by non-binary creator @melgillman
It's about a queer 13-year-old black teen girl at an all-white girls Christian summer hiking camp. There's also a trans major character. The art is all done with colored pencils and it's super beautiful. But you should just start reading to see that! http://www.melaniegillman.com/?p=96
I finally got to read the comics I bought at Emerald City Comic Con, and one of my favorites is Parallel Lines, from @cjjoughin and The Gorgonist. https://tapas.io/episode/760868
It's about queer guys in Portland in 2002 who help out unhappy ghosts. And the ghost in an arcade game who falls in love with one of them. Can't wait for more!
