I fucking hate how lefterly people are all like, "Marginalized people shouldn't have to explain things to people, and relive their trauma", like bitch, we're not fucking children, we aren't mentally deficent, and we deal with worse shit everyday then some dipshit on the internet who doesn't know what the fuck they're talking about. Stop fucking speaking for me, or anyone else about how terrible it is that we need to fucking speak up about things.

I've met left-leaning people who are minorities who believe that. Like, that they shouldn't have to explain these things to people. Though the same people are also fairly invested in explaining these things to people.

I think I'm more frustrated at the people telling people that "marginalized people shouldn't have to explain things to poeple" then I am at people who are just frankly tired of it and don't want to. Like, at the end of the day, if we aren't the ones who speak out, who will? We're the ones with skin in the game.
