Nobody should ever have to fear public officers because of their race. That’s fucking insanity.
Opening states up again this early is going to be one of the biggest factors in the recurrence of the virus in Autumn. We are putting the economy over people’s lives by doing this, and, as much as we’d all like for our normal lives to resume, this isn’t the way to do it.
The people you choose to associate yourself with are the people others will look at when judging your character. If your ‘friends’ are bad people, you will also be seen as a bad person. Be careful who you hang out with; they help to shape your personality.
Sex workers are just as deserving of respect as anyone else, regardless of their occupation. And they are no more deserving of rape and harassment as anyone else.
If you are pro-life, and want to ban gay and lesbian couples from adopting, than you really aren’t helping those children you claim to care for. Keep this in mind.
The primary reason behind the common American backing Ukraine instead of Palestine is the United States government’s relationship with the offending nation.
If the US interacted with Israel the way it interacts with Russia, there would have been immediate calls to end this genocide as well as stronger humanitarian aid given to the people of Gaza.
Remember to be weary of propaganda when you’re consuming media related to this crisis. The people of Palestine have been calling for help for decades - Israel is committing genocide. And we are doing nothing.
Pain is relative. Just because something doesn’t hurt you in particular, doesn’t mean that it can’t hurt someone else. Don’t tell them that ‘somebody else has it worse.’ That doesn’t help them. Be respectful of their situations.
Unless you are vegan, pro-immigration, anti-conversion therapy (centers that LGBT+ children are sent to to be ‘corrected’), against children being sold into sex slavery, etc, than you are not pro-life. You are pro-birth. Please remember this.
Just because someone is caucasian, heterosexual, cisgender, and not in need of money does not mean that they cannot be depressed. Depression is an mental illness; it doesn’t care about your position in life. Don’t disrespect depressed people.
J.K Rowling’s blatant transphobia doesn’t accomplish anything but the spread of false information and predjudices. The Harry Potter franchise deserves better, frankly.
