serious post but: seeing how quick white queers are willing to throw people of color who are queer (mainly black and brown folks) under the bus while spouting bigoted rhetoric is not only scary but solidarity only exists when it benefits them or makes them look good. tired of seeing trans folks of color be absolutely terrified and scared they’ll be exiled from community for even daring to speak their mind or because they sucked as a person in the past. people gotta realize the world wants to kill marginalized folks, especially if they’re poc. you either are with us or not.
I think people forget the LGBTQ+ community was literally built from trans women of color and queer folks of color. they helped kickstart everything only to get treated like dirt beneath the pavement(god forbid if you are a trans woman of color too) this has happened to me and my siblings and we are so tired. if you care about us please raise our voices instead of invalidating our experiences while simultaneously using us as a prop for talking points.
