I'm so OVER this whole democracy thing

This fuck you & your provisional ballot.

This "culture of life."

This electronic-voter-machine-backed reality that nothing brings people together like fear & hate.

This progressive self-loathing ritual in which so-called liberals get on the radio and start blaming the ACLU, the NAACP, and the "gay community" for the disastrous election results.

This "moral values" bullshit as if queer folk / poor folk / women folk / antiwar-war folk / mama folk don't have any.

Like we need some rich daddy with a belt to straighten us out.

'Cause nurturance and mama care are moral values.

NOT dropping bombs on innocent people so you can steal their resources & call it freedom is a moral value.

Holding the safety net for the weakest in our communities is a moral value.

NOT recruiting our kids into militarism to kill thousands and die alone for that rich daddy's tax break is a moral value.

Reproductive freedom, equality, womanism, hospitality . . . love.

I could go on.

I will.
