#cause it just feels like universal and exclusive feel like antonyms and i need a word for universal that means universal to a group not to

does “definitive, universal, and exclusive” make sense as stuff that people apply to definition of humanity?? i am revising my thing to make sure it’s good cause it’s due at 2:40 but i feel like i need a better word than universal or exclusive cause they really seem like antonyms and idk if it makes sense

#what i’m trying to say is like - one definition of humanity as a constant across cultures (saying like you gotta be close to god or you need #an entrepreneurial spirit or whatever being like a constant across all of humans and that’s why there’s capitalism even though it’s not true #and then exclusive as in when people do something bad they say aw man that’s so inhuman of you. which kind of just feels like deflecting #blame if that makes sense? like no actually humans do bad stuff sometimes lets work on it. just like when people say oh if you’re ____ then #you’re not a real punk and it’s like yeah sort of but also pay attention to the problems in your community #you don’t get to just say oh that person is actually not one of us. and then ignore the problems in your society #and then also like just how humans are like this special secret group and like specialer than all the other creatures #and then like when somebody is deemed not human for x y or z then they are unspecial too and sometimes the people doing the labeling are #racist dicks and so the point is putting a definition on humanity allows people to ignore the bad parts of their culture while concurrently #demonizing people of other cultures. and that’s what i’m trying to say and does anybody know a better list of adjectives to get it across #cause it just feels like universal and exclusive feel like antonyms and i need a word for universal that means universal to a group not to #the entire universe cause that’s what it sounds like when i say it) #anyway i appreciate it and it’s okay if nobody can help i’m gonna ask some of my classmates probably next hour and everything #also i had real coffee today like espresso and i usually have either decaf or milkshake almost-coffee cause of caffeine anxiety #and so wish me luck today is the point shdhdf. and i’ll be okay on assignment just help appreciated #sorry for filling my tumblr with english assignments all the time i’m not used to being in AP and it absorbs my entire life sometimes #which i’m not complaining cause i love literature and history and philosophy which is what this class is about. good things to be absorbt in #(absorbt isn’t a word shdhdf i was out of tag letters to say absorbed) #but anyway i feel like i’ve hardly been around except for talking about english class?? and for that i wish things were different #i’m in this class til the end of the year but next trimester is optional and should be slower so i should be around starting like next week #like maybe even on discord?? wouldn’t that be insane. want to do a video call with my friends i miss you guys #(talking about wext but hello nebulous tumblr people i wish i ever hung out with anybody) #anyway help appreciated but i would also just love to hear from my friends. hope you all are well #me. my post. mine. #delete later
