    Only people who are actually fighting deserve a rest. The people who are always resting and never fighting deserve to be kicked out of the resting places until they start pulling their weight.

      Until they start pulling their weight? What? I think this reveals a lot about the way you think. Being queer is not a social club. It isn’t a giant apartment in which we’re all living in and therefore, if someone doesn’t do the fucking chores, they need to be kicked out. No.

      It’s not a either stay and fight or leave situation. We are born in a society that happens to be queerphobic as queer people. There is fighting it, but there is no escaping it. And not everyone wants to fight. I don’t blame them. Because they already have to deal with the fact that they are queer in a queerphobic society, which is already a fight by itself.
