I get really turned off when people explicitly promote a gender/racial identity, but I really like it when I see it implicitly promoted. E.g., "feminism" in media makes me feel gross, but I love the feel of good shows that feature women telling women's stories.

Or for example I am skeptical of the BLM movement, but I saw a big mural the other day that had a huge cast of characters, not a single one of them white, and the obvious cultural-racial pride expressed in that felt good to see.

Or, to clarify all of this - when "I AM WOMYN HEAR ME ROAR" or "BLACK LIVES" or any other group is obviously felt, but is expressed through pure creation and not through a sense of war, that feels good and I love it even if I'm not part of the group being celebrated
