    If the protection of queer women’s and PoC rights aren’t enough for you to shut up and turn out no matter how corporate you feel the party is then you’re in no position to say jack shit when Women Queer folks and PoC tell you to shut up and fall the fuck in line to use that white straight privilege you obviously are rocking to act like they’re oh so the same to get the rest of us to where corporate fuckery is the only thing we have on our plates.

    You know why the Uber right turn out every time, because they believe all that shit, you know why millennials and Zoomers don’t? Because knowing the truth of what the right will do with the power they’re handing them some the fuck how ain’t enough for them to pony up to the onerous Herculean task of spending a day at most waiting in line to fill out a few forms.

    You entitled fucks will fight bite kick and scream like toddlers rather than check a box. You want to perform allyship while fighting with everything you have to whitesplain to us why we shouldn’t expect you to do any of the actual damn work of being an ally. You’re making demands of us for you to do literally the bare minimum, you march and protest and say all the pretty words and then act like that amounts to anything next to a ballot to protect our rights.

    How about instead of demands, you tell us why we don’t have the right to bind gag and drag you by the feet to the polling station and leave you there to rot if that’s what it’ll take to make you do even the first act of actual allyship. Why you deserve to show up at protests and public meetings like your word is worth anything but being laughed out for the faker you are. Why we shouldn’t consider you an active collaborator for having the fucking gall to not consider “THEY ARE LITERALLY FASCISTS OUT TO KILL US” all the reason you need to shut up and listen to what we’re telling you.

    Y’all love to quote MLK on the white moderate all the time as if he wasn’t talking about y’all with your performative ass nonsense. All the words claiming you support the advancement of civil rights with NONE of the action.

    Sit down. Shut up. And stay sat down and shut up till you come back to this convo with your “I voted” sticker to prove you ain’t just Ally-Facing.
