Liberation
Don't get me wrong, rainbow capitalism can be great. I love being able to walk into Target during pride month and pick up a super cheap rainbow flag, rainbow merch, anything so that I can shout my pride out to the world. However, I think it's important every queer person figures out what liberation means to them. For me it has been inherently seperating myself from what society considers to be "the norm." While gayness is becoming more and more normalized our roots, history, and lived experience will never be the same as straight society so why should we live by their rules. Capitalism, sexism, the confines of traditional gender, and gender roles shouldn't have a place in our community any more. My playlist is curated for those punk queers, those queers looking to be liberated from the system because it was NEVER made for us.
