Remember like two years ago before the conservative media bubble told you to dislike them and you didn’t care?

I've been opposed to drag since 2016

Oh I bet. I’m excited to see what arbitrary thing you’ll be offended about two years from now.

Routine-Variety-4772@reddit

It's not about being offended anyway. It's about the fact that the climate is rife with division and I worry that (a) LGB representation is leaving and (b) there will be incidents because of this obsession with drag and the TQ+

You: >It's about the fact that the climate is rife with division… Also, you: >I've been opposed to drag since 2016 This is a real “we’re all trying to find the guy who did this” moment.

I have no idea how to respond to that. No one was taking us second wave feminist responses to drag seriously for years and they still don't. However, there is a section of society who have had a recent reaction to them, which is different than our reaction, and that is gonna cause actual issues.

How about just let people do what makes them happy and leave them be? Radical, I know.
View on Reddit #2662009

Routine-Variety-4772@reddit

Some people are happy murdering others, causing social chaos, and raping kids. Happiness isn't the be all, end all. What's really radical? A society where women feel safe.

Cis woman here, I feel safer around drag queens than pretty much any man that identifies as conservative and / or Christian.
