RE: LGBT-Party Manifesto

in #lgbt-party6 years ago (edited)

Well finally, a good bloody initiative that seeks to have established goals to actually unite this disconnected community, propagate more LGBTQIA+ content and be organized. Moreover, initiatives like this can truly unite the other initiatives and make them more powerful under one banner.
But unfortunately Steemit doesn't promote competition amongst small communities I see. Just look at the person below, or above, me that is claiming that this group is the ill-looked at "collectivist" nightmare is no more than spreading fear and propaganda. They only do this because they fear competition to their group and brand. Also, I have yet to see the LGBT-party claim themselves as socialists, and, in any case, spreading memes won't win you the competition - but empirically and rationally showing your side will.
In any case, with its relatively new birth and rise to fame later down the road, people like that commenter will gulp in the fact that they could've benefited allying with a programme like this. Welp, guess cornering the market makes sense if making profit was the only point of concern, and they'll see that their short-term goals will bury them quicker than what they've half-assed tried to bury here.

Sort:  

You should know me better than that by now, if even by my own posts and comments.

I actually have talked with the "Management" of this group, who are socialists.

I've made my case empirically and rationally, while sometimes injecting humor, and have been muted by every one of this user's accounts. They are not interested in conversation.

If you actually read my last response to them here, after they had passive-aggressively tried to bait me multiple times before muting me instead of actually engaging in the debate they were begging me for (you want the screenshots from the LGBT+ Discord #welcome channel?), I welcome competition. Because we can be united as individuals without anyone herding us around like cattle. You would think we share some common goals and could work together toward them. That is no longer possible now that the "Management" of one group is challenging individuals in the other to debate then muting those individuals when they show up to do so.

Look, it's kewl. I don't really care. I didn't have to "out" myself. I have an amazing life, and I've shed enough blood to say without ego that I've earned it. Anyone who needs masters, leaders, superiors, managers, overseers, etc. ... feel free to leave any group I'm in. I hear political parties are useful for people unwilling or unable to think for themselves and behave like adults.

But I have no desire to dominate you and even less desire to convince you that we're equal after I've appointed myself "Management".

Aaand you muted me too. Way to unite the LGBT+ community on Steemit. /endsarcasm

Hmmmm? I did. I be drunk and high rn so I probably mis-clicked.

Eh, I will check on this when I am not high or drunk. I gotta go partying again.
