queer love and society

Queer love is the first ground to understand. We can love others, romance multiple people, and fill our life with as much joy as possible. Hate fuels but it burns you out. Love can be endless. For me, being queer and living queer means living a loving and honest life. It is queer to this society and so many others because they lack a basis of love. The idea that somebody out there loves you, cares for you, and cares if you go missing should be something we feel all the time. No person should be denied their right to love because that is denying humanity. Willfully weakening the bonds of our social structures is fucking stupid because what the fuck does that help you with? Imagine if society loved all of us. A society that loves everybody will not stop loving you, my privileged reader who is anxious to lose their power. What changes is that everybody is loved. If you have no motivation to help others for the sake of others, at least consider the benefits you get from a society that loves you. The love you receive will only be stronger for being established between all.

Don't we all want more love in the world? How do we get there if you criminalize ways people love each other? Or do we not all want more love in the world.... and why not? What the fuck changes except there being MORE love. Capitalism creates a scarcity mindset but true love can be a renewable resource when we're in environments that foster the production of love. The ways society love you will change but that's because this society doesn't love anybody, even those at the top. It abuses you, forces you to abuse, and makes you think all of these ways of living are love when they're not. This society lies to us, emptying the places where love should be and filling them with fear. It's an emotion but not the one we are really searching for. This may be a naïve belief, but I believe that overall, humanity wants to love more. I see this every day when we reach for and create beautiful communities that support each other. In these spaces I see more humanity that I ever see in a cisgender, heterosexual, patriarchal, capitalist, racialized world.
