Listen.

I voted for Harris.

We just don't have the luxury of nursing grievancesright now, even if they were justified.

gregoryaight.bsky.social•18 days ago

So why did you even jump in here with your grievance?

You're not saying anything.

You just want to be right.

Fine. You are right.

bundlejoy.bsky.social•18 days ago

I'm honestly not sure what grievance you're hearing from me, other than me being frustrated that the most important work we can do right now is to try to build community, and instead of that we are expanding energy arguing about who is the bigger jerk.

bundlejoy.bsky.social•18 days ago

I'm saying, yeah, people are jerks. Maybe I'm one. But we don't have to like each other to share a common cause

gregoryaight.bsky.social•18 days ago

You are blaming the wrong people.

bundlejoy.bsky.social•18 days ago

I'm not trying to blame anybody. I personally either fall into or am very close with people who fall into most of the categories you are listing. And a lot of people are angry and hurting. But allowing that to be a distraction only helps the fascists

Also, wild that you either didn't read or chose to ignore everything else I said so that you could hit me with a: bad people on both sides.

I am really sorry if what I'm trying to say came across that way. it's not what I meant at all. It's that everybody is processing some kind of trauma, and if we lead with that, it will take us all down

gregoryaight.bsky.social•18 days ago

If Palestinian Americans, immigrant Americans, disabled Americans, and other marginalized Americans who were harmed by the Biden administration lead with their trauma, it brings everyone down.

But folks who dehumanize non-voters can do whatever they want and that doesn't bring us almost down?

You saw what Rabbi Danya wrote. She said it way better than me

You're saying some people are allowed to lead with it and other people have to sit back and tolerate being attacked by them.

bundlejoy.bsky.social•18 days ago

That's not what I was trying to say. I get that it's always the marginalized who are subjected to things and are expected to suck it up, microaggressions are everywhere, and I get you are hearing me do them in this convo, despite me trying to talk about a different thing and just not getting there

How was what you were saying different from what I described?
