Shit man. You need better friends and allies. Friendship, like allyship can’t be claimed, they must be earned. Neither would impose themselves on you, or the space or community if it weren’t cool all the way around.
Yup, I need people with at least basic class consciousness. Those are the friends I still have, they respect my boundaries and don’t “support” me by worming their way in my intimacy for their weird voyeuristic needs. Else, I know they’re just posturing, using me or worse, “tolerating” me (until they don’t).

Enjoy your safe spaces.
