Het strafbaar stellen van solidariteit is geen juridische gril.
Het is de voortzetting van een cultureel patroon.

Maxim Februari gebruikte de woorden "lhbtq-getto" in zijn column van eind juni om een pleidooi te maken dat de lhbtiqa+ gemeenschaap helemaal niet bestaat.
Dat irriteerde me zo erg dat ik zelf de pen in klom. Nu op mijn Substack. ⬇️

Gevangen in het "lhbtq-getto"?
Maxim Februari schreef in een NRC-column hoe hij zich gevangen voelt in de "lhbtq-getto", wat het hele idee van een gemeenschap ondermijnt. In dit korte essay pleit ik juist het tegenovergestelde.

Ik zei gisteren nog tegen mijn belastinadviseur: ik heb altijd vol overtuiging mijn aanslagen betaald, maar ik vind het echt problematisch dat Wilders nu mijn geld mag gebruiken om mensen tegen elkaar op te hitsen.

How did the gay rights movement radicalize and lose its way?
Well, a subsection of conservative, affluent cis gays chose to assert themselves as Respectable Citizens of Empire, thereby undermining queer solidarity and betraying transsexual liberation.
They now scold us for fighting for ourselves.

Zohran Mamdani winning the Democratic primary in New York is great news but you must protect him and fight for him because the campaign against him (even from within the Democratic Party) will be massive.

These are just lies. Iran didn’t actually leave the negotiating table. Israel simply bombed Iran and now the US has joined. And the UK just declared that it supports these bombings.

Two French guys looked at me in absolute horror while I sliced into my croissant this morning and put butter and sugar on it.
I'm sorry my dear, but these bake off croissants in the hotel are not like the French ones. I NEED TO IMPROVE THEM.

If you do this you're not an author; you're a lazy hack.
So that now makes Lena McDonald, KC Crowne and Rania Faris leaving ChatGPT prompts in their ‘books’.
I’m so fucking tired, guys. If you don’t write, you’re not a writer. It’s that simple. Stop doing this to your readers, who PAY.
Readers and authors deserve better than this. 📚💙
