Leslie time, y'all. Surprisingly, this is my first Leslie post of the week. Consider yourselves lucky.
Up for discussion this week is anything from chapters 7 through 8. These discussion points kinda majorly fucking suck still.
- What are your feelings about the book overall?
- How did you react to Leslie spitting mad anti-capitalist facts in chapter 8? :CommiePOGGERS:
- Are you still on your "lesser-of-two-evils" bullshit? 👀
- What did you learn?
- Was anything eye opening to you?
- Are there any misconceptions about particular aspects of the trans community that have maybe been torn down?
- Did anything make you reflect on how you view your own gender identity or expression?
- Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
- Are there things that brought out intense emotion?
- Was there anything that really reaffirmed your beliefs as a leftist or motivated you to be more based like Leslie? - Please, God. Remove me from this nightmare.
This thread will be featured for 24 hours then will remain pinned in !transenby_liberation for the remainder of the week. I'm thinking about keeping a general discussion thread pinned in the comm for anyone listening to the audio books to chime in and drop comments.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. If we all strive to be even a fraction as based as Leslie was, this world would probably be a lot better of a place, lol.
This. If it doesn't have use value, it's not worth it.
And yet some libs here are having a hard time with this one.
Just fucking say it! Stand up for what's right, comrade! Encourage others to either help or shut the fuck up! I'm all about doing, help or get the fuck out of my way. 😎
No problem! I'm grateful to those who participated! I'm not entirely sure what I was expecting, to tell you the truth. I had been trying to get people interested in the group reading for a while but I think coming out of the struggle session on pronoun tags I saw an opportunity to use a new feature on the website, that allowed for site-wide pins, for educational purposes and rolled with it. Discussion kinda died off over the weeks, but the amount of upvotes on the posts and comments reassures me that maybe people who didn't participate maybe at least maybe read through the comments that each of us found insightful and found meaning in them too. But in theory, the goal was to offer something educational for those who looked at the struggle session and wanted to listen to those the issue affects and I'm extremely appreciative of everyone who sought to be a better comrade and ally by participating in this group reading. You're all based as hell. ❤️
