today i have to facilitate community consultations for my city's terrible Pride festival and i am Not looking forward to it
i mean, by 'have to' i mean 'infiltrated their management via volunteering because an activist group i'm in is trying to get cops kicked out of pride and this seemed like a good way to influence the process'
but i am still not looking forward to trying to wrangle a bunch of libs into not acting like cops are entitled to queer spaces
Pride, politics, ACAB Afficher plus
@dconley our head of the board is infuriatingly pro-cop, although I doubt she would consider herself so. another person in my group has been dealing with her directly and just... christ. it was awful. cares more about hurting cop feelings than the actual safety and security of lgbtq people, because she's made it clear that consciously or not, she considers queer poc to be their own separate entity rather than an integral part of the community.
