what if we moved the conversation from "you're not a monster for being abused/for being queer/for being mentally ill" to "it's okay to be a fucking monster"

baby, I tire of being human

in before accusations I'm not really insert marginalized group here because no one who is TRULY oppressed would wish to be inhuman after all

if you cannot grant me humanity, I will, gleefully, take the crown on monstrosity on myself and make you rue the day you think you could make me feel shame with this category, with being the Other

Besides, you taught me that to be human is to be terrible.

I am a million different forms of trauma and suffering given a voice to name themselves

better yet:

why do you believe in monsters?
