Cool.

Were you there?

Why not? An indigenous person tells me that something is offensive to indigenous people, and has a fair explanation for it, why should I as a descendant of immigrants say they're wrong?

Wow, loving this representation of my generation lol.

I've used "USians" in the recent past bc I've had multiple people tell me "American" is insulting to indigenous people. I was just trying not to piss people off unnecessarily, and didn't realize in doing so I was pissing people off unnecessarily lol

I remember being a teen and pissed at everything, but also somehow believing that the world was moving in the right direction. I was only right about the first half.

I have numerous questions. But I also am of the "hey, I need to pee, I'll call you right back" camp, so I'm bringing my own biases here

I'm sorry. what?

Thoughts being: Given that I lowkey bullied Frankie until they left, I'm feeling pretty annoyed/ashamed that it has resulted in so many people UNsubscribing, bc for some reason people are really defensive of the nazi bar?

They then turn around and use that money to subsidize blogs by prominent fascist voices. So yeah, if you're paying for a s*bstack, I'm judging you. Not sorry about it.

So just btw, if you PAY for a s*bstack subscription (yes, even trans/BIPOC/marginalized writers) you are supporting the nazi bar. They take a 10% fee on paid subscriptions, so 10% of that money you think of as going to that writer is instead going directly to the nazis who run the company, and...

I've spent a lot of time, publicly and privately, trying to educate folks on why they should leave S*bstack. But I've mostly focused on the writers and creators POSTING on there. I didn't realize the readers/users were so married to hanging out at the nazi bar.

I love soccer, and I'm wicked impressed by the athletes, but nominally, a child can (poorly) do all the things they do. They can run, kick a ball, etc. But like, I can't even ice skate, let alone do all those other things while ice skating?
