I see your yard signs and I see your posts and voter registration texts, and I see your fighting back at racist and sexist and homophobic comments from similarly privileged people and it’s the universe. It reminds me someone actually cares I have basic human dignity. I feel like I’m fighting alone, so often.
I'm on your side, .... and I realize and feel bad that I'm not doing enough for so many causes I care for Excuses like time, money... ugh. I've donated and boosted... but nothing incredible... yet[?]
I called Rep Clay Higgins offices today. All 3. I show no mercy to the staff of these racists. ALL of them are racists, and they keep the offices running and harm the nation in the process. I am alone most of the time, but I figure if I’m calling folks, others are also working. You aren’t alone, even if we only meet here in the ether.
Like, I don't do it for any praise, I just try to default to kindness and support
It often feels like there's (very well-deserved) reticence to accept help from more privileged folks, and to see you (in particular you, whom I have so much respect for and trust in) saying this really helps me deal with the non-zero amount of shit I get just for being in favor of basic human decency.
So. . .Thank you so much. For making me feel better, but most of all for fighting the good fight.
(And to be totally clear here, I'm not in any way trying to compare the gibes and dirty looks I get to what is experienced by the truly marginalized. . .but it's still shit , and I still have to put up with it.)
@b4ux1t3 I'm really sorry. It's because there are a lot of people who fake it for very shady reasons. It is hard to trust people when you've been stabbed in the back before.
To the extent that anything I might do or have done has or will help, it's at least in part because of your inspiration, Lesley. Yours, yes, and others, too.
