so i guess we’re all boycotting the outhouse now then as well because a for profit queer cafe can obviously do absolutely no good for community. all for profit queer spaces are evil. even if they charge low costs to cover the rent to facilitate community space existing.

queer space can only be pure and worthy if it does not take in any profit. you must simply magic money for rent out of the power of queer community https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="☺️" title="Lächelndes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Lächelndes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💗" title="Wachsendes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Wachsendes Herz">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏🏻" title="Gefaltete Hände (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Gefaltete Hände (heller Hautton)">

if you can’t see that community space existing is more valuable than falling out over a poorly executed plan with good intentions, there’s truly no hope for us. why are you all obsessed with nitpicking at any thing any of us does that isn’t perfect?

and why is your approach to criticising a poorly executed plan to form a fucking mob to traumatise a person with ultimately community-centred positive intentions, instead of trying to work with this person to make the plan better, to actually contribute to community building

instead of tearing down every person and actively preventing community building, actively encouraging so much distrust that community building is fuckin impossible?

i started this thread sarcastic and sassy but honestly i’m so sad and tired of watching us tear each other apart instead of choosing to show each other compassion and care and help each other grow together. it’s not supposed to be like this.

and i’m not trying to say that the outhouse is perfect or this amazing community space for everyone, but it is a valuable resource for a lot of people. community space EXISTING is valuable even if it exists in an imperfect way

also i’m so late to this party that i may have completely missed the boat haha but the general theme of this thread is relevant anyway i think. not that anyone cares about anything i say lol
