This is pretty much the exact thing the organizer (straight) of my hometown Pride group said to me when I asked her to speak out against all the anti-Arab/Palestinian racism on her timeline and in the Pride group. Said she could risk losing the Zionist support. There is no Pride without justice.

I'm so exhausted from assumptions and hints and "vibes" that seeing direct communication is just so affirming and calms me down so much.

I still remember seeing your Pride pictures saying "touch me" and thinking, "this guy gets it."

As an autistic person, my advice is write it on a t-shirt? Lol, I'm not gonna assume that anyone wants to make out with me unless they approach me and directly tell me that. Even then, I'll have my doubts. If someone winks at me, I'll assume they have something in their eye.
