I’ll also note that there are a number of nurses that feel that they can’t actually make a difference because their days are spent running appeals against souless insurance companies or that anecdotally they just spend their time being yelled at by patients. I’ve also talked with teachers that have complained about sacrificing so much for the kids they teach only to have those very students abuse them or steal from them.

These folks are definitely more likely to actually make a difference, but it is far from easy or rewarding most of the time.

This is someone that exclusively post on the shit post community, so I wouldn’t take them seriously.

The meme is saying that lgbtqia+ folks should not use the word queer because it is the tool of the homophobic and transphobic.

Oscar Montoya had a good take that I’ll roughly paraphrase, which is that queer let’s you fit where you are without needing to define yourself for others’ convenience. Looking at the community as a queer community also helps to keep others from dividing us with shit like “LGB without the T”.
