Bash Back! at the Inauguration
Bash Back! cordially invites you to the marriage of the gay assimilationist movement to the State on January 20th, 2009. The gay ruling class has been committed to the State for many years, and this January they will try to make us all make the ultimate commitment to violent, oppressive institutions on the eve of a new Democratic Party regime. Yet few realize that this is an arranged marriage: the assimilationist elite have claimed to speak for all queer and trans folks, yet as outcasts and rejects of commodified, mainstream gay culture, Bash Back! Says NO! to marriage to the State. We know that whether a Democrat or a Republican rules over us, queer and trans liberation cannot be obtained by assimilation into institutions of straight privilege. Rather, we want a divorce from the State and from movements that have never represented our interests and never will. We invite all queer rebels and traitors to patriarchal norms to join us this January in the streets of D.C. in our wedding’s best to say “Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off!” to unrepresentative movements and the State.
Always the reception crashers and never the brides,
Bash Back! DC

Can't get to DC but want to help. What can others like myself do. Right, right, right let's call the whole thing of!
solidarity actions? i mean i think we know the organizations and people that are responsible for the cultural erasure and violent assimilation of queer people. take them on in your town, we are everywhere and should run them out of all our towns
