A person who believes Black/brown/queer/female/etc. ppl are inescapably inferior believes that cuz they NEED to. Not cuz it was the most rational conclusion give the observable data. Can that change? Sure. But it's not gonna be me personally indulging their bullshit over din-din that's gonna do it.

Hi @michaelnugent.bsky.social, defending people like your friend Graham Linehan this week you wrote, "We should engage with the content of ideas we disagree with, not accuse the people who express them of malign motivations." How do I engage with him using "airborne AIDS"? Is this not malign? 1/
No, it's a fad that popped up in American academia and then spread through the internet in the first quarter of this century, infecting every country it touched. It is like an airborne AIDS, and it has been the worst disaster for gay people since that disease

Being obsessed with the musical #NextToNormal I attempted to play the #piano part of the song "Everything Else," tried to play the other instruments too, and added them in. I'm not sure it's very good, but it took a few days to make it, so here it is 😅 youtu.be/UdqZFS7wnc4

It's not appropriate for cis people to say that trans people are too alarmed, or that certain trans writers are irresponsibly causing trans people to think the sky is falling. I want to take some time in this 🧵 to write personally about how my skies have fallen.

I saw a clip of #JackWolfe singing I'm Alive from #NextToNormal, and since he is so amazing, I got interested in seeing the whole thing. I had no idea what I was in for, and jfc that thing is pure psychological warfare! It is extremely good, but I'm now devastated, and can't get it out of my head 😩

We keep hearing folks rejecting the warning bells about the trans genocide, saying “it’s not like there’s gas chambers & ovens”. Aside from the reality that the Holocaust didn’t start w/ gas chambers & ovens, this comes from an ignorant understanding of what a genocide is. Let’s talk about it. 1/15

These efforts erase our cultural safety - but you can’t stop trans people from being born. You can only erase our ability to exist in society. And that’s genocide. 15/15

They’d love to be able to dismiss most autistic people as “not really autistic”, a world where *if* you ever make your voice heard, even it it’s with much support…that means you don’t get to speak. Your voice won’t matter because having one means you’re not “profoundly autistic” enough to count.

The best time to make comparisons to the Holocaust is *before* they start throwing people in concentration camps. We're already too late for that. Why teach about history if you're not willing to do this? Why remember it at all?

I am once again BEGGING people Leftists to stop doing this. When you fat-shame a racist, they may or may not care, but your fat friends see your post, and they certainly do care, because you're telling them how you really see them. People who enjoy bullying like this don't belong on the Left.
A tweet with a blanked out name showing a picture of Lucy Connolly out walking with her dogs. She is wearing a pink top and jean shorts and sandals. It looks like she is walking through an English housing estate. The tweet says "Do they make the porridge with double cream and sugar" bullying her for (possibly) putting on weight in prison.

It took decades for us to reach a place where people were comfortable talking about their autism. Where diagnosis became achievable because awareness & advocacy efforts were successful This move will undo all of that. People will fear being diagnosed & mask themselves more The cruelty is the point

If men want to rape us they do not need to “pretend” to be women to get into our toilets or our changing rooms. They can just…rape us, in those spaces or other public spaces or in our workplaces or our homes, and they can be statistically pretty certain that they will never face punishment for this.

If you ask GC people what you would need to be able to change about your physical body in order to change sex in their eyes they will never give you an answer. They can't. Because to them "biological sex" is a non material essence like a soul, given to you at conception

I'm going to continue my ravings about #Flow from my last post I guess. So the cat was "stuck" in its old comfortable life, where everything was revolving around itself, which is why there were cat figures everywhere. Of course on the surface level, I guess an artist used to... 1/n

I'm a bit obsessed with Flow. The movie is an absolutely beautiful experience. Being autistic, I spend WAY too much energy trying to find "explanations," while fully realizing that it risks reducing the movie. Still, the peaks in the distance clearly play an enormously important role. 1/n

Centrism has not only failed to stop the rise of fascism in Europe and the US, it has, in fact, actively enabled it, by painting the Far Right and the Far Left in the same way. The BBC are still doing it in an article today. You can't even say a Nazi salute is a Nazi salute.

Centrists are generally well-off people for whom the status-quo is working out. They have a newspaper column, a nice house, the respect of their peers etc. Yes, they care to a certain extent about minorities, but, they don't want the boat that they're in rocked too much.

One of my favourite things anyone has ever said about art. You'll be missed, David. 🌹
 “Right here people might bring up Vincent van Gogh as an example of a painter who did great work in spite of—or because of—his suffering. I like to think that van Gogh would have been even more prolific and even greater if he wasn’t so restricted by the things tormenting him. I don’t think it was pain that made him so great—I think his painting brought him whatever happiness he had.” ― David Lynch
