This is about who lives and who is allowed to just die. And you know, I mean, if we did, if we do want some guns, we might want to bejewel them a little bit, maybe put a pink handle on them.
Have you ever wondered how laws and economic systems shape our lives? In this episode of 'Black Fluid Poet', John S. Blake takes a hard look at the rising tide of anti-trans legislation and the grip of capitalism on society. Blake’s voice, both soothing and firm, guides listeners through a landscape fraught with challenges, especially for the LGBTQIA community.
They argue that this community stands as one of the fiercest opponents of capitalism, constantly pushing back against control mechanisms rooted in religion and banking. Blake doesn’t just talk about abstract concepts; they share personal stories from social media experiences, writing workshops, and relationships. These anecdotes bring the discussion to life, making it clear that the fight for existence is deeply personal.
The episode wraps up with a heartfelt call-to-action, urging everyone to foster love and create a society where safety and acceptance are the norms. If you're looking for a mix of personal reflection and societal critique, this episode offers both in spades.
