things that are more interesting/controversial/sexy/exciting/dangerous/edgy than using oppressive language/imagery:

hardstep:

- taking a hard stance against something shitty

- calling out someone who is shitty

- boycotting a company that is shitty

- burning a cop*

- burning a church*

- working to dismantle the systems that keep folks oppressed

things that are not actually interesting/controversial/sexy/exciting/dangerous/edgy:

- replicating the same oppressive language and imagery that mainstream society has used to oppress and degrade people basically forever. 

- no really, its the most norm thing you can do.

*Disclaimer: By reblogging this I am not actually advocating assault/arson.

Just thought I should probably clear that up before one of the 22,000 followers of this blog cites me in their defence statement or something.
