A little piece of political writing for your morning coffee, because apparently queer people existing peacefully is now a full-scale cultural offensive. ☕🐙

I wrote about victim-blaming, the strange conservative habit of experiencing queer existence as an attack, and that beautifully imaginary golden age when queer people were supposedly accepted right up until we became “too visible”.

Spoiler: that golden age never existed. It was mostly just silence, discrimination, and better camouflage.

Because sometimes the sharpest response to “Why are you making this political?” is simply: We were here before you started complaining about us. 🏳️‍🌈

CW: queerphobia, discrimination, political rhetoric
