The only time I'll hate on someone is if they're being an arsehole, because that hurts other people.

...and unlike being LGBTQ+, being an arsehole is a choice.

There's a lot about the LGBTQ+ community still I don't understand. A bunch of stuff is rather off the beaten track as far as my upbringing is concerned (I was brought up in a rather conservative family).

But you know what? I don't need to understand everything in order to respect it. As long as you're not hurting anybody else, you do you! Be the person you want to be!

The vast majority of people who create and sell their own goods aren't members of the capitalist class. They are instead engaging in trade, which isn't the same thing.

The capitalist class owns property and assets, and can passively accumulate capital.

An assortment of assholes, mostly MRAs, have labeled me an SJW. After much thought, I've determined that SJW is a label for decent people, applied by people who don't want to have to be decent.

I'm actively working to claim that term as a label for people with kindness and empathy. The kind of people I want to hang around with.

Oh wow, so this was a thing. lol

this insistence on model solutions rather than correct ones, on style rather than substance, on method rather than grok, on verbiage rather than results, just so we can all be taught the same way and measured the same way, reinforces privilege and screws over those of us who are not "the same way"

(end)

the ideas that

- you don't understand something unless you can explain it
- you don't understand something unless you act like other people who understand it
- you haven't solved a problem properly unless you can demonstrate how you "worked it out"

are gaslighty ableist toxic bullshit
