Awesome. Seize those moments. That makes me happy. I’m in food work right now and there are no audible trumpers in our kitchen. Colleagues tell me kitchens are all nazi or no nazi. That makes sense. One tendency dominates. Our kitchen is queer led and quite professional.

The obstacle is more a deep sense of learned helplessness. Labor has great power, but laborers are extremely vulnerable.

I mean, food service depends in no small way on immigrants, who, even if in good legal standing, are wary. The birthright citizens feel no less trapped. We talk about it openly.

I had similar luck making jokes about Jeff Bezoar’s opulent wedding. I expressed mock concerns about his ability to pay it off. Everybody likes shitting on the ultra rich, boths sides! I learned lots of new ways to jab Jeff because many had their own quick reply.

This is what builds movements. People with great disagreements find uniting principles. ‘Don’t fiddle kids’ is a generally held principle. So is ‘One person should not have too much power’.

People with too much power tend to fiddle with kids too. These issues are interlinked.
