I just woke up and immediately came across these news https://www.cnn.com/2025/02/13/us/stonewall-inn-national-monument-transgender/index.html
"When describing the Stonewall Uprising, the website now reads: "Before the 1960s, almost everything about living openly as a lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) person was illegal, but the events at the Stonewall Inn sparked fresh momentum for the LGB civil rights movement!"
#TheFirstPrideWasARiot lead by #trans women of color - our godmothers Masha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera - who were advocating for armed struggle, among the other things; right away though the movement was co-opted by #white #gay men especially, but also quite a number of lesbian women, because their existence is more acceptable to the #RulingClass. The result of this is now a pride intended as a promiscuous parade and begging the powerful for non-heterosexual marriage from those who sold their asses to the #capitalists and if anyone dares to act offended because of this truth under this post will be blocked and their comment deleted. Our trans and #intersex siblings are forgotten especially because of your obedience.
#Queer is a posture, not an identity. To all my trans and intersex siblings, I see you and salute you. This Pride, we Riot.
