whats the point of leftist praxis if youre just going to be mean and cynical to everyone. literally if your politics aren’t grounded in Being Kind they are worthless to me. personally i dont want subsidized healthcare and fair wages because i read that theyre Correct in a book somewhere. i just think its a dick move to have a world where people cant afford to live. conservatism isnt Mean because it’s Bad, it’s Bad because it’s Mean.

#id rather serve soup with a kind well meaning bunch of old ladies who dont really get all that 'politics' stuff #but think everyone deserves a warm drink and a safe bed #than a million self righteous assholes who think if you aren't working 90-hour weeks and streaming marx straight into your skull #you're worthless to The Movement. #the latter group..... like girl you aren't a community organizer. you're just deeply unpleasant to be around. #if your service to your community is based in self-flagellation and musty old theory instead of love #then what are you doing. cmon. whats the point. you're gonna say all that just to turn around and be an asshole for no reason? #CHRIS FLEMING SAID IT BEST PER USUAL. #CALL YOURSELF A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER BUT YOU CANT EVEN GET ALONG WITH YOUR ROOMMATES. #anyways i am prepared for someone to reblog this and say that i'm tone policing #but this post isn't about the difference between being ''nice'' and being ''kind'' #it's about the people who use that difference as an excuse to be neither. #so do your bad-faith interpretations if you want. if this upsets you you're probably the sort of person it's about. #(this is not a vague about any of my followers though it's mostly a general statement) #(prompted in this case by someone in my social work class) #(who's on a horse so fucking high she might as well be outside the gates of Troy) #rhi talks #sj #misc
