I almost listed a few of his activism and fundraising initiatives, but then I thought: If this person doesn't think a nearly 90 year old gay man, who survived an internment camp, has seen some shit and has some wisdom to share, I probably won't be the one to open their eyes.
That's very cute of you, but I did say I also love George Takei. I know he has wisdom to share. I just don't think this is useful right now.
People can do multiple things. Like post and organize mutual aid. Or post and engage in activism. Or write a comment and think.
Ok just not for you, but for others yeah it kind of helps even keep up the spirits so gtfo of the way then cuz you're not helpful nor useful.
Why not?
So if not tweeting about it, WTF are you expecting from him? Be specific.
