about a million people with bios like ‘uwu punch a h*ckin nazi’ suddenly discovering politics that involve hostility and denouncing it to everyone they can think of right now
if your politics are premised on niceness you will just lose to spite and reaction again but more progressively, because a lot of people are angry
what’s really funny is them telling me that I’m being performative. if you claim to be a leftist or a progressive or whatever but you start crying when someone raises their voice, your house is glass
