idk what shit-eating truscum needs to hear this, but your rhetoric directly harms people with culturally-specific genders. i’m native and two-spirit, that label describes my gender and my attraction. i use they/them pronouns and your “nonbinaries and cringey stargender trenders aren’t valid” bullshit is getting old. our languages were demonized and erased, our gender and attraction labels along with them. my experiences with dysphoria exist because of colonialist ideas of gender. we have been forced into arbitrary ‘male’ and ‘female’ categories by colonizers for centuries and truscum rhetoric perpetuates racist colonialist violence against natives.

your experiences are not universal, you’re not forwarding justice for trans people, and you’re definitely not an ally to natives or other people of color. you’re just a fucking colonizer. 

folk punk, crust punk and ska punk are such goblin offshoots of punk tbh

name one native american intellectual off the top of your head, name one native american actor or actress off the top of your head, name one native american senator, one native american news anchor, or an author or a tv personality or a singer or a poet or a comedian, name a single native american teacher you’ve had, can you? probably not 

ok so now think of one native american cartoon character you know of or a sports team relating to native americans whether it’s their actual name or their team logo, or a town you live in or near with a “native” name bet a lot of these things came to you right away i bet you didn’t even have to think 

needing native representation in media, education and government are not decoy issues, the commercialization and appropriation of native cultures are not decoy issues, the lack of native representation is institutional oppression at work 

black people, please take care of yourselves. please take care of your health. please take care of your mind. please take care of your spirit.

i understand if your soul is not at peace. i understand if you are exhausted. just, please take care of yourselves in these dark, hateful times and surround yourself with people who understand why.

Hey so I've seen it happening a lot and am by far not absolved from it myself but

White autistic and neurodivergent people we need to stop weaponizing our neurodivergency against people of color

Having hyperempathy does not absolve us from needing to actually listen to people of color when they talk about the oppression they face

Having low empathy does not mean we get to opt out of caring about and being compassionate for people of color.

Not understanding social cues does not mean we are exempt from unlearning any racist behaviors and micro-aggressions we perpetuate

Being autistic and/or neurodivergent does not mean we aren't capable of racism, that we were not raised to be racist by white society.

Many right leaning groups target privileged autistic people because we tend to be easier to manipulate due to our not picking up on red flags and our empathy levels being often an extreme.

Listen to people of color over your own comfort because being neurodivergent does not suddenly mean we don't experience white privilege or fragility.

Theory: Miss Major has been all but entirely erased from our narrative of Stonewall so people could avoid thinking about the fact that she's still alive and has a retirement fund that needs donations

hey!!! el salvador has been struck by a massive tropical storm that’s left many families devastated. this combined with the strict quarantine theyre under doesnt help their situation much. please consider donating here to help

here's a link to a carrd compiling ways you can support the black lives matter movement (made by twt user @dehyedration)

other than listing petitions, places to donate, and where to call/text, it also compiles resources such as threads debunking misinfo, education on black history, and information for protestors. it's being updated regularly

while protestors are out on the streets asking justice for breonna taylor's murder, louisville law enforcement has senselessly murdered another black man, david mcatee. he was the owner of a bbq restaurant and he was literally at the protests feeding people when he was killed after law enforcement blindly shot into a crowd!! his family says he was shot while trying to protect his niece!! he was known to feed police officers for free!! he was a good, kind man! say his name!!

hey! in the midst of all this, spreading this information could potentially save LOTS of folks out there in protest! it costs Absolutely NOTHING to share. the original thread is on Twitter by strwbrrymew. the link to the thread is here, it contains more important information to note, including a video about how to do a proper eye flush should someone be teargassed.

reposting the list of some black owned businesses you can support (click on the images for a better preview)

i haven’t seen this posted yet (if it has been someone please correct me) but here is a link for folks in Canada with resources as well as a list of Black-led organizations for Canadians seeking to support local initiatives

please reblog to spread and add more information/links if you have them!
