Me: In November, either Trump or Biden will win. There is no third outcome, so we should vote accordingly for the option that will mitigate the most harm.

The people in my notes: Oh, so you think direct action is bad? You think voting is literally the only thing we can do? You hate activism? You love Biden and endorse everything he does and think nobody should criticize him ever? You think voting will just magically solve all our problems? You think protesting is wrong? You love the status quo and think everything is fine?

Happy International Women’s Day!

As we come together to celebrate the achievements of women throughout history, it’s important to remember the ongoing struggles women across the world are facing.

Today, let’s keep a special focus on all of our sisters of color, queer sisters, trans sisters, Palestinian sisters, working class sisters, disabled sisters, and sisters struggling with reproductive Justice.

We must not forget where we come from, and we must remember who we are working to protect now. I hope you all have a wonderful day - and pass along some kind words to the wonderful women in your lives!

The primary reason behind the common American backing Ukraine instead of Palestine is the United States government’s relationship with the offending nation.

If the US interacted with Israel the way it interacts with Russia, there would have been immediate calls to end this genocide as well as stronger humanitarian aid given to the people of Gaza.

Remember to be weary of propaganda when you’re consuming media related to this crisis. The people of Palestine have been calling for help for decades - Israel is committing genocide. And we are doing nothing.

J.K Rowling’s blatant transphobia doesn’t accomplish anything but the spread of false information and predjudices. The Harry Potter franchise deserves better, frankly.

Opening states up again this early is going to be one of the biggest factors in the recurrence of the virus in Autumn. We are putting the economy over people’s lives by doing this, and, as much as we’d all like for our normal lives to resume, this isn’t the way to do it.

Nobody should ever have to fear public officers because of their race. That’s fucking insanity.

If people are rioting because of police violence, the proper response is not to be more violent.

The entire PrideFall operation is honestly all the explanation straight people should require as to why we need a Pride Month to begin with.

Taking part in protests, yet continuing to do/say racist things does not make you an activist, it makes you a douchebag who takes advantage of the horrible injustices faced by minorities in this country for popularity/respect.

The moment Twitter has to label the tweets of a SITTING PRESIDENT as ‘misleading’ is the moment our country loses every ounce of dignity we may once have had.

Racism absolutely exists, and there are thousands of articles and videos out there that prove it. Before arguing that a minority (especially one you aren’t a part of) doesn’t suffer from discrimination and oppression, do your research and educate yourself. Just because you don’t experience it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.

If you are a person protesting quarantine, you are the reason that this is going to last another several months. Stop being selfish, and just stay home.

Don’t judge a group by individuals in it. Hating entire group simply because a of a few select members is NOT a wise way to go about life. If one person makes a mistake, they deserve the consequences, not the entire group. For example, not all Christians are homophobic. Sure, there are a lot of homophobic Christians, but they shouldn’t all be judged by their religion as a whole. Similar situation when it comes to racism. There are a LOT of racist Caucasian people, but not all of them are. Just like, though there are some African American criminals, the innocent don’t deserve to be incarcerated simply due to ignorance. However, certain groups cannot be looked at with this rule, such as Nazis or pedophiles. But, for the general public, the point still stands.

Not liking popular things does not make you ‘better’ than everyone else. If you’re a person who says things like ‘I’m not like other people,’ then you aren’t better or worse than them. Popular things are not inherently bad. There are a lot of popular celebrities, trends, songs, clothing styles, etc, that are great and there is absolutely nothing wrong with liking them. ‘Mainstream’ and ‘bad’ are not synonymous, nor are ‘unpopular’ and ‘cool’. Don’t diminish the interests of others just because you yourself do not agree.
