Myriam Gurba (Serrano through my mom) @lesbrains.bsky.social · 21/06/2025I hate when people applaud shitty institutions for caving to activist pressure and doing “the right thing.” The shitty institutions don’t deserve the applause. The activists do. 13917131 917
Kayin Dreemurr @kayindreemurr.bsky.social · 22/06/2025Unfortunately people generally favor institutions and hierarchies rather than activists. Because activists are usually viewed to some extent as rabble rousers. 000 0
Serra Sea @gimblerocket.bsky.social · 22/06/2025I totally get that. Strategically, though, it's probably necessary for keeping them doing the things you want. If they don't perceive any benefit to themselves of doing the right thing, it gets harder to make them do the right thing. 111 1
