i think we should have this discussion https://twitter.com/revrenddoctor/status/1307288939099762689
our experiences on this site are different, and i can’t speak for anyone else’s experience. but my experience on this site is that most of my peers who have weird emotional investments in our political figures have absolutely zero material investments in their communities.
it’s always the “vote this november!” crowd calling someone contrarian.....bc y’all have given your power to the ruth’s and herman’s and john’s of the world.
it’s so interesting to me that OP says “the world is burning” because in this instance ....RBG quite literally allowed a pipeline through appalachia.
are we contrarian for seeing that the world is burning and begging y’all to give up false idols and do something?
i am contrarian. i’m an aquarius. i’ll own that. i am very proud that i can say i never read harry potter. most of you bitches can’t say that.
but i what i won’t own is y’all calling people who are asking you to sit with the full reality of the state —a reality they learned by being in *combat* with the state, contrarian.
we are looking down the barrel because of half truths and willful ignorance.

from obama to kamala from ruth to john, there will be people who have critiques, and who you all will call contrary.
what you are failing to realize is that the critique and the perceived contrariness is to a system that allows these people to amass so much unchecked power

because what will come next is you all saying “allow people to grow! people make mistakes!”
when a child makes a mistake, i have to replant some chard. when a heavily degreed politician makes a mistake, entire generations are destroyed.
these people have
too
much
power
