How can you say all that and then reach such a shytty conclusion? They have their rights protected (except the black ones). fukk whether or not we're being pit against each other, I'm trynna get MY rights protected.
ps, Trayvon wasn't even killed by a cop, just a random private citizen.
That's the whole point, the "TQ+" ain't just doing the shyt in private no more.
1. If they are black then by your very own DEFINITION they don't. The black gay experience is fundamentally different from everyone else and any gay black person would tell you that.
1.5 Obviously But to say that Travon's murder didn't re-open the conversation over the summary execution of black people (by police or otherwise) is intellectually dishonest. And to say the police, and their lack of response, to that encounter wasn't part of the problem either is also dishonest.
2. If you don't think this culture war bullshyt isn't also made to obfuscate anti-black shyt as well then you ain't paying attention. Look how easy it was in Florida to slide in some sweeping education changes (around saying slavery was BENIFICIAL to black people), right next to the book banning of LGBTQ stories. The attack is quadruple pronged. Mostly because black people, Latino people, white women and gay people combined will be able to win nearly every election in every major state. So, you erode the collective spirit of these communities (book banning), take away their rights (abortion and voting rights) or make sure they don't get here in the first place (immigration) and then white men can still control the country.
Its a "first they came for the gays, then the latinos, then they came for me" kinda thing. By not fighting for the rights of marginalized people...you make it significantly easier for the power group to oppress YOU TOO.
3. Two things can be true at the same time. For as much as there is a cadre of (mostly white) LGBTQ lobbyists and power brokers. There's also an element okie-doke (mostly from the Right) in getting black/brown people to be upset at gender/sexual politics.
