If any of y'all try to say, “We survived Reagan, we’ll survive this,” expect a fucking earful from me. 

Have you ever noticed that young gay men seem to vastly, overwhelmingly outnumber old gay men?

We most certainly did NOT survive Reagan.

As someone who personally survived the Reagan/Thatcher years, I’m gonna second this. The minimal margin by which some extremely fortunate and possibly privileged members of our community crawled out of the smouldering wreckage of that period is not actually a sign that ‘we’ survived. We, as a cultural group, lost so much and so many that modern LGBT+ culture is essentially reinventing the wheel as far as cultural concepts go. We didn’t survive. We started over.

With Trump’s election and the threat of fascism, Twitter user Raphael Bob-Waksberg reminds us of Martin Niemöller’s words after WWIII:

“First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

the fact that this is still relevant today re: Trump and Pence’s homophobia and Pence’s horrible track record with HIV/AIDS healthcare makes me feel really fuckin’ gross
