Meanwhile, abstaining from all things problematic, without doing anything materially positive for any of the LGBTQ folks in your life isn't doing anyone any favors. Being a Consumerist Harpy who only knows how to scream at people for their mass media of choice, in the name of LGBTQ, is turning civil advocacy into some kind of branding exercise.

I don't know if you're trying to call me out or not, but I can assure you I am quite active in advocacy and direct action for queer folks in my life and ib my community. I'm not interested in writing up a resumė about it, but I'm not the tree to bark up with that one.

Which is great. A lot of folks are.

It's also great to hear what they're doing with their free time, as a positive rejoinder to "HP is toxic".

More interested in new progressive media than a 10 year old argument about a book that came out 20 years ago.

Cool. I choose not to post that here. Have a good rest of your day.
