🧵 about #class #privilege and #privateeducation. Watching the Olympic swimming last night and Clare Balding said something in such an incredulous tone which summed up the establishment perspective and how their experience differs. 1/
This quote, from Mahershala Ali’s character, George, in Netflix’s ‘Leave The World Behind’ - apply this to bigots:
“Nothing frightens me more, than a person unwilling to learn. Even at their own expense. That’s a darkness I will never understand.”
Even if treatment offered was free, painless, guaranteed to never have negative side effects - people should still have the right to chose it for themselves
A utopian society wouldn’t *only* include tech and medicine that could potentially eradicate disabilities and illnesses
A utopian society would be built on autonomy first as a principle, and would cater for all people and their choices
“Why can’t you just be a woman who’s a bit masculine sometimes?”
Because I want no part in fucking gender crap, that’s why. I don’t want my every physical and personality trait fucking categorised like that
Rejection and dismissal is painful. Being an unapologetic fat and queer person, makes my life harder in many ways
But what’s the alternative? Sacrificing who I am, to play a part that *might* grant me an absence of rejection, just long enough for someone to exploit me?
No
The queer agenda is literally just promoting autonomy
And that shouldn’t be scary but, it is, if you’ve been raised as a commodity. A commodity who’s only sources of love, joy and sanctuary, come from performing for others

A very specific request: I'm looking to speak to men who love the Wolf Of Wall Street for an article I'm writing for Dazed. If you describe that film as your favourite, or have done so in the past, please send me a DM and I can tell you more about the piece #journorequest
Making friends is hard because a lot of people seem to only view other humans as commodities
I have often felt what I thought was genuine caring from someone, only to discover they were keeping me sweet so long as I was of use to them
