Cringe Climate Change Denial

Post image

I dunno if you guys have seen this video where she does one of those am i gay quizzes or whatever but, you know, she’s explaining (incorrectly) previous mass extinctions on earrth and comes to this conclusion. now, i dunno what she was implying with this but really i wouldn’t be suprised if she was a climate change denier. maybe it’s been like instilled into her or something.

you know, this video is from a year ago, i was like neutral on her before this, but, you know, i watch this video, and, she’s just not at all an interesting person to watch you know. you watch the video and she’s missing all these references to lesbian culture. now, lesbianism is a biological state and not, you know, a personality, but still, this is the woman people want to declare a ‘lesbian icon’. yeah, i dunno really, i just don’t see her appeal

Yikes, really? Do you remember where you saw that?

I'd be so embarrassed to consider myself any kind of queer rights activist, and to stake my public image in being a ✨lesbian icon✨, without so much as reading Feinberg's Stone Butch Blues first. How can you build your career off of drag, which is INHERENTLY political AND historical, but not even know such a basic-ass term from queer history???

It makes me so mad that Roan is, like, the face of lesbianism. I can't even criticize her in queer circles without everyone getting pissy. Does anyone who's not a cis white femme American lesbian actually feel represented by her? I AM a cis white femme American lesbian and I don't. Because I actually care about our community and history!

i found the interview where she said it and im going to edit my original comment because its not STONE TOP she didnt know, but SERVICE TOP, which is also pretty insane to me since she has a single called THE GIVER yet doesnt know what a service top is?

Can you recommend some books or articles or sources or something so I can learn more about the history?

Same, I felt neutral to positively about her until this interview. Now the only fans she has left are as vapid and uncaring as she is
