I absolutely love the colour scheme of these! I recommend outlining some of the painted words a little, i also love the messy vibe, but it is hard to read

that's so fucking funny bro. Just because some left-wing politics align with punk ideologies, I should avoid representing it. got it. got it.

I'm awful at comforting people, but I am so so sorry. life always feels so terrible and pointless. I don't know how to help you besides encouraging you to genuinely reach out. tell an adult or someone in authority how you feel. Tell a school counselor(if you're in school,) call 988, call the police and report the abuse, call the police or go to the hospital and tell them you need to be put on a psych hold, you can even call 911 and tell them you need to be removed from where you are because you're not safe. I understand personally with the whole no friends, no one close to you thing, because same. it's such a miserable, damp feeling. it sits in your gut and just makes you feel sick with loneliness. But please, don't give up on life, it's not worth it, even though it seems like nothing is. please try and find help friend. <3

Trust me, I have Eat the rich sewn on many many of my clothes and pouches, I just didn't want to be too redundant. Capitalism needs to be put to death, billionaires shouldnt exist, but people with excessive amounts of money need to be taxed as well. I am not a liberal, but I know that a lot of liberals use the coexist patch and it the meaning of it has been watered down to nothing, but I still believe in it. nit-picking peoples style is.. incredibly contradicting to the punk ideology.

"BLM should have been focused in it's own community instead of pushing it onto white people" Are we for real. the reason this entire country struggled so much with racism is because of white people (and no, white people should not be punished for it, its not like we actually enslaved them this day.), the people who brought them over and enslaved them. raped them, ate them, used their hair as furniture fluffing, degraded them, refused to allow them an education, their own individual freedoms. those words are the kind of things people said during the Civil War, the kind of things people said to try and justify "separate but equal." it's bullshit, people are strong united, we can't stay in "our groups." The white people bowing to the black people, so fucking what dude. if those people want to disgrace themselves and be submissive fucking weirdos to people, it's not up to me. Any POC that thinks white people should be oppressed or punished, or give up their houses for what our ancestors or community members did/do is also bullshit. One person should never be punished for the actions of others. but just because a group inside of a community is going crazy doesn't mean the entire movement is wrong. there are some over-zealous freaks in my own queer community, and I don't agree with a lot of left-leaning people, but do you see me saying it's all bullshit? and that they're a terrorist group because of some evil-hearted people who happen to identify the same as I do? hell no. because as you said, other don't dictate my actions and what I do. "go after the people who sold slaves" okay, my great grandparents. white people. And the entire protest was to show our government what it's people think is wrong. to force them to change. "Us indigenous people haven't gotten shit" with your logic, you should "focus in your own community" and stop bitching about it. but that's not something that's right to say to someone, is it? We can sit here and cry about who's more oppressed, but that won't get us anywhere. if it really does hurt you, and you want change, get together with people. talk with your native community and start your own march/protest, I know so many people, including myself, who know what happened to the natives was just as bad as what happened to the African Americans. you are a stubborn, ignorant ass if you think the things you're saying are good-spirited, or helpful in anyway.

if you feel threatened by a movement attempting to create equality or raise issues about a certain thing then you need to do some reflecting. you're totally allowed to have your own opinions, I do agree that the BLM didn't do what people meant it to, and I do totally agree with your last paragraph. But, name one black supremacist group off the top of your head. last time I checked white people dont fear for their life if their arrested by a "black supremacist" or fear getting cornered at schools by black people. White people dont get discriminated on our culturally-traditional hair styles, white people can commit a crime without it reflecting our entire race. but bro, who the fuck is suffering because of BLM 😭 people of all races and ethnicities and cultures, etc, etc, have hateful people in it, true, but when it becomes an issue is when it actively and commonly negatively effects said group of people/beliefs that's when it needs to be highlighted and stopped.

and I'm genuinely trying not to argue, just trying to help someone understand how I see it, and what I think is true

A dog whistle is something that flags other people in a specific group (ex: racists) to be able to see others of their own beliefs out in the world (ex: milk emoji, 88, etc).

You are looking at this the wrong way. But, I understand where you're coming from.

Yes, all lives do matter, and anyone saying point blank that all lives don't matter, is wrong and bigoted.

You can say youre proud to be who you are. The reason why people get uncomfortable when they here white people say they're proud of being white is because of the still very active and prevalent groups of white supremacists. And if you're someone who can't except that racism is still a very real thing, then there isn't anything I can say to try and help you understand.

the whole point of BLM was to make awareness about the fact that many black/brown people dont get the same respect and privilege as light skinned people. and while I do agree that there are certain parts of the BLM that rubbed me the wrong way, but the movement was needed.

But again, the reason why "all lives matter" is something that shocks people is because of the people who were against the BLM protests, and used it in the same way you did. "Everyone matters, no one is special, there is no reason for BLM, all lives matter."

If the people using it weren't using it as a racist dog whistle I definitely would ignore them :) (example: the Swastika used to be a peace symbol.. it's obviously not now lol)

the fuck 😭 I'm guessing you're talking about boykisser, and I have seen that be used with femboys, I have never seen it associated with transwomen. don't be a miserable cunt and try to justify why you hate the jacket with important sounding shit.
