A Stonewall monument without trans representation is not a Stonewall monument. It is less than meaningless it is actively harmful. Praise to the people planting their own flags.

Mira Lazine reports on several that have made the decision to do so in her latest piece.

Basic paradox of intolerance stuff - actually you should be incredibly rude to racists, homophobes, transphobes, sexists and neo-nazis! You should be rude to them and then you should kick them out of your establishment

A lot of issues with banning, moderation and free speech boil down to "how can we make sure everyone's opinions get respected" without realising that not everyone's opinions should be respected

For real. There's so much inward hostility around the community. Fortunately, there are in fact spaces that are nice, there's just a whole lot of shitty ones in between.
I count us so lucky to have found a group of friends that are chill with it and willing to listen.

Just for no reason I’ve decided to tell you a story.
It’s about being bisexual in the 90s. My lesbian friends (who quickly became my ex friends) told me I didn’t exist. I was confused. I was a traitor to “real” lesbians because I tainted them because I had contact with cock.

Yep. One of the biggest blind spots people have is assuming that underneath, others share the same basic values as them. They have trouble imagining an ideology that is completely misaligned with theirs.

Legitimate question- How is this legal? How is this not being immediately challenged by big companies who make artists sign dozens of NDA's? How is it not considered a threat to free expression? Art isn't a personal record or raw consumer data. Our privacy laws DESPERATELY need an update.
