Allyship cant be turned on and off

Being an ally is an all or nothing thing. It isn’t something you can turn on for people you like and off for people you don’t. You can’t flip a switch when you’re fighting.

You’re effectively saying, “you only deserve my support when you act the way I want you to.”

You aren’t body positive if you make a joke about Trump's weight whenever he pisses you off.

You aren’t a feminist if you refuse to believe a victim of sexual assault because the assault was done by someone you know and like.

You’re not an ally to trans and non-binary people if you deadname and misgender them on purpose when you feel wronged.

You’re not an ally to disabled people if everyone you don’t like is “faking it” and you ignore accessibility to exclude your enemies.

Bigotry isn’t something you can throw around at people who have wronged you while only protecting your friends. Bigoted attitudes and sentiments affect everyone in the group you are insulting.
