But I will say this, a movement can’t get along without a devil, and across the whole political spectrum there is a misogynistic tendency to choose a female devil, whether it’s Anita Bryant, Hillary Clinton, Marie Antoinette, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, or J.K. Rowling [or Taylor Swift]. And there’s always gonna be people who seize on any opportunity to be misogynistic. So I would advise trans people and our allies [or environmentalists] to keep in mind, that J.K. Rowling [Taylor Swift] is not the final boss of transphobia [anti-environmentalism]. She’s not our devil. The devil is the Republican Party, the Conservative Party.

    Oh, thx for the numbers.

    And I do apologize for the poetic ‘million’, it was, as everything else in that reply, a joke (I’m saying that I was in fact not wondering why we post pics, nor think we should text format all the things - I mean, we have video blogs, that’s just ascii with unnecessary human bits :D (again, joking)). I mean, I look at memes hours per day & shitpost them around, I understand sharing images.

    The main point/reference/nostalgia I was trying to make was putting together classic windows theme (starting in dial-up era) and how impractical would have been to use images back then.

    (Also, not that it matters in the million, I was thinking uncompressed png vs ascii.)
