- July 11, 2020

It's Saturday. At one time days of the week meant more to me. At one time I had passion and motivation.

I have no interest in anyone telling me to be ashamed of who I am. I will not allow anyone to tell me what they think I am. This country has too many people telling others to be ashamed of who they are. Racist only see color of skin. Homophobes do not see love as love and have no love themselves.

I need to focus on what I can do. I need to focus on myself because I have been broken by people that took advantage of my trust. I need to not trust. I will not believe anyone just because they say something.

I have no interest in hate groups of any color and I have no interest in favoritism and discrimination. I do not care if you say you support LGBTQ+ causes or have LGBTQ+ friends. If you want to be an ally then wear an ally shirt and show up at Pride events. Do not expect me to support your hate because you claim to be an ally. I have no interest in division.

I have no interest in taking sides. I have no interest in things that divide the LGBTQ+ community. There is one Pride flag that represents the entire community. A flag that has been around since the beginning of Pride. Take your hate elsewhere. Just because you perceive that the flag does not include you is not an excuse to make the flag about color of skin or trans. If you are trans you are a part of the community. Never let anyone tell you that you do not belong. We need to be united. This is not the time to divide.

I came across a post asking about ethnic diversity at places of work in the LGBTQ+ community. This is offensive. The LGBTQ+ community should never be about ethnicity. This sounds like someone that does not belong to the community attempting to create division.

I have always felt like an outsider no matter where I went. Even at Pride events I felt like no one welcomed me but I have no interest in making Pride about me.

We are a small group and to divide would mean that we divide into even smaller groups.
