  • I think I maybe get what you mean, I’ve noticed I have a disproportionate amount of disdain or resentment for wealthy white gay guys. Rational or not, they seem like a convenient focal point lol for these overarching issues.

    My main post was facetious. I’m a coward and if getting caught doing the gay posed a real risk to my life I’d probably minimize that. The pigs would never catch me in removedrante delicto.

    I admire the courage and sacrifice of the people who got us here. It was a path often paved with blood. It just stings to see the loudest voices in LGBT be the people with the absolute lowest risk of being persecuted/harmed/killed. I also know too many gay white guys in finance and finance-adjacent fields, so they migjt just be the worst examples.lol.





  • some funny excerpts from the natopedia article on rainbow capitalism:

    After the Second World War, Western culture was influenced by the homophobia of fascism

    In the United States, accommodation of the LGBT community through capitalist mechanisms has resulted in economic and societal protections for the LGBT community greater than those prescribed under the law. Under the American economic system, employers are incentivized to support the workforce[…]

    I guess there were some missteps in the 30s and 40s, when our glorious western culture was tainted by the foreign ideology of fascism. Luckily, thanks to the power of the free market, this has been corrected and discrimination against the gays has been fixed by the invisible hand.
