kelsium and I were out last month or so and she really has it right on the politics thing
She talked about how basically, the time to worry about offending people by being dogmatic is over. Progressives simply cannot fucking afford to be pushovers anymore. The right is shoving shit down everyone’s throat and GUESS WHAT? IT’S WORKING. BECAUSE A LOT OF PROGRESSIVES ARE PUSHOVERS. WE DON’T HAVE TO BE THOUGH. WE CAN’T AFFORD TO BE ANYMORE. WE MUST BECOME JUST AS FUCKING LOUD AND IRRITATING AS CONSERVATIVES.
STOP BEING AFRAID TO STEP ON PEOPLE’S FEET
FUCKING
STEP
ON
THEM
IF YOU ARE A HUMAN WHO IS PASSIONATE ABOUT SOMETHING, ESPECIALLY SOMETHING THAT IS CLEARLY CORRECT, DON’T FUCKING LET YOURSELF GET TRAMPLED
Sorry, I just needed to reblog this as proof that I am basically the same level of shouty about politics in bars as I am on the internet.
KEEP SHOUTING!
FUCKING STEP ON THOSE GODDAMN FEET. STOMP ON THEM.
