NO ONE IS IMMUNE

Not from misogyny, racism, homophobia, ableism, or the ignorance in thinking so.

Not speaking to any white cis people about this election if they dont bring it up to me first...

As a black woman it's a matter of self protection and protection from shame. I'm so baffled how little people understand the life and death scenarios that led to my and others decision to not have a fascist rapist in govt. I just had an abortion and I'm so privileged to have had one. do u think the women who died from not having access were thinking about these ideological gymnastics? No, this was a matter of life or death. I'm just So Baffled. I'm very educated as well and am so acutely aware of how fucked this system is. It's run by capitalism and a disregard for basic human rights to say the least. There are so many things wrong. But I had to think about a matter of saving lives instead of starting a nameless revolution made out of instagram infographics and quotes by white philosophers And mofos in beanies. Racism and mysogeny has impacted every fiber of my existence. and I dont want any cis white person with zero pressing LIFE OR DEATH ramifications to speak to me about it bc the majority do not care and are saying straight to my face I do not have empathy for you. I have been far from Perfect, have been very complacent and pessimistic about everything rlly, but I have compassion And the ability to look outside myself. And clearly so many ppl on the left do Not. Smh ...

Tbh these methods also apply to real life, but I think anytime we're confronted with something that elicits strong emotions, it's important to slow down and ask: 1. "Is this deliberate ignorance, or just casual incompetence?" (bigotry = automatic no tolerance) 2. "Is the person on the other side able to engage in discussion in good faith?" 3. "Am I able to talk to them and extend good faith?" If #1 is deliberate ignorance, then tread carefully. If it's casual incompetence, and #2 or #3 is a "no", then you shouldn't engage at all because no one will be heard & no bridges are built. And of course, if it's bigotry then block/report/ensure proper consequences are had so they don't have a space to spread hateful speech & ideologies. Be mindful on the internet & make sure to make your words & presence count.
