**Update: To all the white queers responding to my comment during "White Tears/Brown Scars" - There are exceptions to every general statement, but my example was that you can *generally* hide and disguise your queerness, but you can't do that with race. (Also, queer POC exist too.) Regardless of whether queerness can get clocked or not, debating on those technicalities is not the point. The point is that that while being queer will always be harder than being straight, being white will always be easier than anything else. You need to accept that you are white and benefit from your whiteness, not just cling onto your queerness as refuge.
