I know I shouldn’t have, but hear me out
I bought an Anita Bryant vinyl. It was like $1. It was preowned, so none of the money went to Anita or her family (she died in 2024, btw side note that her granddaughter is married to a woman).
I saw it in the store and I’ve always wanted a keepsake from one of Contrapoints’ videos that wasn’t a book. I haven’t touched the vinyl itself in case it burns my gay skin upon contact.
Does anyone have anything else like this? Content where you don’t condone the creator, and your purchase hasn’t funded them, but you for some reason want?
Maybe this is personal masochism; I also (as a Jew) own a copy of Mein Kampf.
I donated a much larger amount to my local LGBT+ centre for my sins, and brought Anita along for the walk. I could feel her presence looking up at me, burning in a hot vat of orange juice.
