bonus/proof:

Im so tired of people who “aren’t political”.

Buying anything is political.

Watching tv is political.

Listening to music is political.

Going to work is political.

Making art is political. Actually, no, making anything at all is political.

Having a phone is political.

Social media is political.

Being a human being is political.

Humans have reached a point of not being able to exist without politics, the brands you support, the websites you use, the things you make, the people you talk to, the things you support and the air you breathe are all politics. It’s so pathetic how human lives are political. There are genocides happening, there’s ai stealing jobs that artists need in order to survive in the capitalist system that they don’t even want, the climate is being destroyed, women, trans people, gay people, poc, disabled people and any minorities or being abused and killed and you choose to turn a blind eye.

If you are knowingly engaging with a public figure (any celebrity and any politician) who support racism/sexism/homophobia/transphobia/ableism/Zionism/Islamophobia/antisemitism/abusive then you are racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic/ableist/a Zionist/Islamophobic/antisemitic/supporting abuse!

There’s no excuse.

Shein is not all you can afford, charity/thrift shops and vinted and eBay are literally cheaper. Shein uses sweatshops.

Nothing on Amazon is a necessity. They mistreat their workers.

You don’t need a brand new Harry Potter book/plush/costume/ANYTHING ELSE, if you’re so desperate buy it second hand because there’s no need to support a woman who wants to get rid of trans people.

You don’t need to listen to morrisey/mccafferty/lady gaga/Katy Perry/ANY OTHER PROBLEMATIC SINGER on Spotify, literally pirate their music.

Same with tv shows, yellow jackets has racist writers, pirate it, stranger things kept Noah schnapp, pirate it, you don’t need to see Snow White , the actress who played the evil queen (currently blanking on her name) is a Zionist. PIRATE IT.

Everything you do is political. Supporting any of these things is political. Not voting is political. People are politics. GETPUNK! Or admit that you benefit for conservatism.

What can you do?

DIY, upcycle, learn crafts, it’s a 2 for 1 of getting a new skill and saving money. Can’t do that for one reason or another? Ok, cool, but second hand and donate your old stuff, everyone benefits and it’s more affordable! Or at very least take the time to research the ethics of the brands you buy from. The only things you absolutely need to pay for first hand are food, shelter, bills and medication (also hospital bills if that’s a thing in your country).

I also feel incredibly hopeless right now, I want to do so much but I don't know where to start besides sharing information on the internet. It's not enough, I need to go out and make a difference but I'm barely keeping my head afloat. This is what the system is designed to do. Keep us barely surviving so we can't organize against them.

I don't know where to go from here but I do know I'm not going to stop fighting. And neither should you. This is not going to be an easy fight and many people will lose their lives. We cannot stop fighting.

I dont care if 9/10 of the people who use the wheelchair ramp arent actually in wheelchairs. As long as the 1 person who needs it has access to it.

I dont care if 9/10 people who use the automatic push button on the library door can actually push the door open themselves. As long as the 1 person who the door is too heavy for gets to use it.

I dont care if 9/10 people who buy the can tab opener, or the little guitar clamp that holds the chords for you, or the hand grip that helps you hold chop sticks, don't need any of it and just get it to "be lazy". As long as the one disabled person who needs it gets access to it.

I do not care. Oh my GOD I do not care. As long as there's a disabled person on this planet who the accessibility device will benefit, the accessibility device is necessary.

Also, if you're so worried about people being "lazy" by using accessibility devices, MORE worried than you are about disabled (visibly or not) people not having access to them, you have unchecked ableism you need to work through.
