“They’re afraid of losing friends, being ridiculed in class, getting worse grades and are even afraid of being assaulted and physically hurt.”
good
no, not good. because if we hate them as much as Trump and his supporters hate certain groups, we are no better than they are.
yeah I am
“if you hate these bigots you’re just as bigoted as they are”
This “we’re no better than them” mentality makes the critical mistake that hate itself is the problem.
Hate is not the problem. At all. Hate can be constructive. Hate can be defensive and come from righteous outrage.
The problem is irrational hate towards innocent people.
Hating a racist is COMPLETELY fucking different from hating a race. A whole race didn’t do anything wrong. A racist did. Hating the racist is 100% proportionate, justifiable retaliation.
Fucking. Mic. Drop.
The reason that hate groups like the Klan have been driven so near to extinction is because of this exact thing. It became unfashionable to be publicly racist, and the backlash against those kinds of groups became unbearable for them. It drove them out of the limelight and into the very fringes of society.
This postmodern “hating the hate makes you just as bad” bullshit is what’s allowing them to re-prosper.
Fuck that.
Expose them. Make them lose their friends. Ridicule them in classes. If you can get away with it, beat their asses. Show them what it means that we will not go back to that way of life again. It’s time for the racists to be the ones who live in fear.
Hating bigotry does not a bigot make.
Imma just leave this here
This applies to all forms of bigotry. The idea that minorities have to ‘earn’ equal rights and being treated as human beings ONLY if we are saintly perfect pure beings who always turn the other cheek and give our attackers every single pass in the world is BULLSHIT.
hi my name is anna, im 18, nb, a lesbian and mentally ill
im still in a terrible money situation, my dad is still very sick from chemo/radiation and his short term memory is non existent, he cant control his emotions and lashes out at me and my mom.
my homeless uncle(the father of the man who sexually abused my brother for years) is still staying with us and he’s eating through our food stamps so fast its fucking unreal. i have asthma and he smokes outside my window just to spite my dad and we cant afford using a/c so i have to leave my window open
my mental health is getting worse and worse because of this whole situation. im diagnosed with PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, depression and anxiety. i experience body dysphoria not only because im trans but because of my huge weight loss in the past 2 years. my ocd has been getting fucking unreal(you can /ask me about it if u wanna know more)
in my current state i cant get a job(not even just because of my mental state even, we dont have a fucking car that runs reliably either and despite my other uncle offering to pay for it my dad refuses to get it fixed) let alone go to school(PTSD) and theres no way i could drive even if we had a car because im not allowed to because i have self destructive impulses when behind the wheel.
my brother who lives across the country in Alaska has offered to let me move in with him once his current lease is up in september because he knows the situation is toxic and that i need to get out.
tldr; i am living in a toxic environment with the father of my brother’s abuser(my uncle) and my dad whos anger is completely unpredictable and frankly terrifying and i dont even have a phone. my brother offered to take me in until i can get on my feet but he lives across the country. i need money to help buy the plane ticket (anywhere from 300 - 600 dollars) as well as gas and other living expenses like food(since we run out of food stamps like 2 weeks before the card refreshes because of my uncle) and toiletries(and anything else i may Need) until my brother is able to find and move into a home that can accommodate myself, his wife and two kids

Uh yeah holy shit remember on deviantart when you were talking to people you could insert reaction pics into your messages because you could at people so that you can see their icon and people made accounts for different reaction pics and you would post them into your comments by going like :iconragefaceplz: and it was extremely specific the amount of :iconplz: accounts were infinite? What I’m describing is very specific and was a huge part of da culture
