When I read your post I heard Stewie Griffin in my head say "Flat out lies and logical fallacies? Well you don't say!"

9 gang represent.

I don't think that's right. I think it is "They want a black woman," but not Kamala Harris, who is the lesser of two evils. Therefore, ironically: why not trump?

I think this comment is expressing frustration that progressive voters could have voted in a black woman, despite her imperfections, but didnt. An estimated 81 million people did not vote. Now we are stuck with the worst possible outcome.

Yes, and at the same time I am troubled by a company sponsoring a drag show, or slapping a rainbow sticker on a product and no-one really benefits except the corporation. When we see a queer person, a disabled person, a southeast Asian person used in advertising, that's usually not representation, its exploitation.

So.i mean I agree with you but also I think there's something more fundamental. I don't have any solution besides revolution.

Do people want a show? Or has a protest become co-opted by capitalism and the forces of status quo into a spectacle of entertainment that's largely empty of any political or lasting benefit to queer people?

That's a rhetorical question because yes, yes to that second one I'm pretty sure.

How the hell did it become normalized that a human rights protest have corporate sponsors? It makes no damn sense.

I see. Thanks for clarification. I assumed we were talking about snorting lines of powdered fruit. When it comes to putting blueberries into my butthole, I'd say I could manage half a pint, maybe more.

This is true but less interesting to me because I once had a job in a bakery making blueberry muffins. I had 50 lb bags of frozen blueberries that upon opening, would emit large clouds of blueberry aroma. Day after day, thousands of pounds of blueberries, so much blueberry vapor. I grew to hate the smell. I begged to be put on some other kind of muffin, but nope, I was the youngest and therefore lowest status in the bakery. So I'm not really a fan of blueberries.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
