To liberals, only actions sanctioned by the state count as political participation (e.g. voting, registered "protests", calling representatives, etc.) when in reality, removed from their ideological framework, those actions simply constitute an endorsement of the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. Real, material political action largely happens away from the theater and farce that is bourgeois parliamentarism but rather in the field of worker organization, agitation, and unionization.

What a cute family, hope nothing bad happens to them

Without filters

every theory that kris is some type of evil creepypasta villian is WRONG. thats what they WANT you to think. in reality theyre just an emo teenager. they post this on instagram when they miss their brother.

A lot of sentiments I see online about "just standing up for yourself" fall apart when considering that a common consequence of "standing up for yourself" is losing a key part of your current support network. It's hard to tell someone to stop being transphobic to you when you carpool with them to work, and it'll get a lot more expensive without them. Can your budget tolerate that cost, or is it the expense that stretches you too far? It's hard to tell someone that they need to be more polite to you when they're the one who helps walk you through legalese. Can you find someone else to do it for you, or are you left floundering? It's hard to tell someone to stop being sexist to you when they're the one writing your reference letter. Do you have someone else who can be your reference, or are they the only one whose letter would be accepted?

In order to be able to stand up for yourself, you need to be able to bear the potential consequence of that person leaving. You need to either have redundancy in your network, or be able to pay for what they did for you. Safety is about more than if someone will hit you.
