This is an opinion piece I wrote in spanish on my blog a few days ago, and now I just translated it to english, for english speakers to read.

I write about the "Straight Moderate", in a way akin to how MLK talked about the "White Moderate", because I fell identified with his frustrations, extrapolated to the LGBTQ+ struggles.

Tell me what you think if you read it, thanks.

Thank you. Yeah. That is true. Im a "white" "middle class" (I say middle class because of my living conditions, which are way above average and I lived in privileges my entire life, but im currently gathering coins for public transport and I have to walk almost everywhere I go) leftist and certainly I dont get along with others like me because they are too comfortable, they are too conservative to be considered leftists, besides what they think of themselves, and they dont really care about class, race or gender issues.
