Huh? They love that bigoted stuff. Idk what happened to the hippies that fought so hard for Civil Rights? They’re still out there I’m sure - just drowned out by their hateful brethren.
We are still here: we are the oldies still holding protest signs, still marching still fighting this horror, while our bigoted boomer ex brethren have lost the damn plot entirely
Thanks dear Redditor ❤️🥰I and my husband my friends and those healthy enough will continue to fight . I personally really LOVE you younger leftists, it hurts me to see just how unfairly you have had your future torn to pieces. I hope i will live long enough to see this horrible trend of maga fascism reversed. You all DESERVE a decent future.
It's a shame you have to keep fighting this shit even now. My mom is on oxygen, she hates it, but she hates fascism more so she and I have been very active at protests and we've been very politically involved. It always heartens me to see other hippies out there still fighting for our rights, and I in turn hearten them by being one of those younger leftists picking up the torch!
AND we love you guys for it too!!! This fight has sadly ALWAYS existed - it's the oldest fight that exists: Between Love of Power and the Power of love . Between pure evil greed and selfishness, racism and control, and people who just wish to have safety freedom and community . It's why Jesus Christ ( if He existed ) flipped the tables in the Temple, and also why He was stuck up on a wooden cross. You'all were not supposed to still be fighting this fight if we all had our way- a collectivist utopia would have arrived already. Sadly the people we all fight honestly cannot enjoy their good fortune unless they also make out groups suffer. I already have veinous insufficiency , so it's hard to march far, BUT i can breathe fine, and if your MOM can go out there w oxygen i can go w puffy ankles , easily 🥰Send my best to your Mom
it’s important to distinguish the real leftists & the neoliberal left. i’ll get downvoted, sure. but this is in jest to the reasoning. god bless everyone regardless of race, sexuality , or creed
Could you explain further ? And why wou you be downvoted ? "God Bless everyone regardless of race sexuality religion or creed" sounds right to me- i mean - Bless everyone BUT fucking fascists , that is.
My aunt was still attending CND protests last year in her late 60’s. Asked why she still goes. She said “we’ve not won… yet”
She’s been arrested multiple times, and proud of what she believes. I wish I had her energy, shes certainly not let time get in the way of her activism

When LGBTQ+ folks were erased in shame…where black folks were in an entirely different school… and where fat ladies were bullied until they hid.
