Remember, EM POC only!
This message is to my EM POC comrades: Angel loves all of you.
Especially as of late, I have truly been feeling like this community has worked wonders in keeping me stable when it comes to handling the massive jar of mayo that this site can be sometimes.
How are you all?
reading the origins of American sayings: aaaaaah it goes back white people doing something awful okay
Every single day I am reminded that literally everything in america goes back to white people being racist if you go back far enough
My favorite variant of that is “White people being so racist they sabotage a good thing that would even help them because that thing would also help other people.” It’s so wild to think people are so racist-ly stupid they would harm themselves to make sure other people also are harmed. Utterly unhinged.
Voting is a prime example. I cannot imagine caring so much about what other people are doing that I would deliberately stand in line for hours just to make sure they stand there for hours, too. You’d think every state would have mail-in ballots, e-mail ballots, plenty of voting stations, etc. etc. just to make the process as convenient as possible.
But no. People would rather spend a vacation day off work to go stand in line for hours than make it easier for us undesirables to vote. And voting is like the simplest thing to do. Reactionaries are against healthcare, education, etc. because they think it’s better 1,000 innocents die than one guilty person get something they maybe/possibly/sometimes don’t deserve.
Fuckin’ exactly man. It’s so fuckin’ stupid that this nightmare world we live in boils down to people thinking other people shouldn’t get what they FEEL other people don’t deserve. Such a selfish and vile mindset
Many such cases
