She named the connective tissue that holds our communities together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast and too often.

You werenβt coming in here with curiosity you were explicitly and publicly posting uninformed and damaging opinions about a stigmatized group of people.
Also my clients are regular people of all genders. Most of them kind and generous.
Like I shouldnβt have to come into this conversation like this. Sex work is work.
Yo, sex worker here. If you donβt know stuff, which you keep pointing out, maybe stop talking and go learn stuff.
All jobs under capitalism are exploitative, thatβs how capitalism works. Being a whore has been the most accessible and well paid work I have ever done.

The point is to not constantly conjure the Nazis as the bogey man. To not render invisible the systemic violence of American white people, or Europeans (same same really).
Weβve drifted from the point.
America is not behaving like Nazis in the sense that America has always been bedfellows.

The point is that one not need conjure Nazis because America has always been as bad.

In The Edge of Space-Time, I spend a decent amount of time talking about Zhou Kingdom philosophers' attempts to understand and explain the nature of motion, and I was only able to do that because of a small number of translations of the Ancient Chinese into English
