RE: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly - LGBT+ Edition Week 5

in #lgbt7 years ago

Wow this is interesting I have never seen curation with bad and ugly parts but equally this is a great idea, some might not like it...infact I hope never to feature in either if I am honest but to me its all learning to be fair. Thanks for this.

Sort:  

Part of raising awareness is making the public understand the paranoia and outright hatred we face. I'm not going to sugar-coat it or make it more palatable for them, because we don't have that luxury. I want this to make people uncomfortable. I want them to think about how they treat each other. In many ways, it is bigger than just the LGBT+ community. I have been close to jumping off the roof of my building on more than one occassion because I can't wave a magic wand or something to make people leave each other the hell alone as the default position. I wish it was all rainbows and unicorns, but some of the statistics (which I'm sure you know) are appalling and would be a rallying cry for widespread social change if it was any other demographic. So fuck anyone who squirms in their seat reading this. My people are being disowned, abused, raped, murdered, and if reporting it makes someone uncomfortable ... good.
