I don't like to get political, and if you don't want to bother with it, don't, but I want to make myself clear. It's going to be a bit of a rant, and deal in absolutes.
Black lives matter. All lives, in fact, matter, but we've definitely proven, as a society, than for some reason we can't get that through our thick skulls. Gay lives matter. Queer lives matter. Straight lives matter. Trans lives matter. And if you, for one moment, can't get it through your thick skull that people EVERYWHERE are people, and deserve to be treated as such, no matter their orientation, background, color of their skin, disabilities, WHATEVER... If you are willing to listen, to hear, to grow, to think, and can be swayed, even if we don't agree on this subject, or want to put caveats on this, then we can talk. If you believe otherwise and refuse to change your mind, I refuse to deal with you. Take your fun elsewhere.
Martin Luther King had a dream, and one day it will overtake this nightmare we live in. We have to fight to make that happen, or else we are not going to survive all that divides us. And even if I, personally, don't suffer from these problems... to be silent is to be complicit.
Live. Be yourself. You have those rights. Don't let them be taken away from you, and don't let anyone lose them on your watch. We must do our part.
... That's all I have to say on the matter, friends. When the world stops being quite so crazy, I hope we can all live in peace.
