    I output what I feel. I feel that text is blind to itself, it talks about a shitty issue with too much grandiosity. It could be written with some more self-awareness to its place in the general discussion about freedoms. It is nothing, or at least not very much, but presents itself as everything.

      I was too harsh in my original comment, I apologize, honestly. I’ve seen Whatabout-ism so much recently and it’s just draining to basically hear people constantly try and change the subject or bring up something completely outta left field instead of contributing to what’s in front of them, I’ll be real with you.

      I get what you’re saying, but, well, the issue is that important to the author to be writing about it in such a grand way. Or they’re flexing thier writing skills, who really knows. That isn’t to say they don’t give a shit about the death of people and thier communities or other injustices to people and freedoms…they’re just not relevant to this particular problem they wanna focus on at the moment. They know there’s worse shit out there that also needs attention, most people with half a brain know it too. But that’s a whole different beast to what’s being talked about here.
