In a wonderful relationship, 6 years and counting. Currently attending university. I'm an avid knitter. I love thrift stores, tea, weenie dogs, romance, hedgehogs, tights, Hello Kitty, glitter, Good Charlotte, feminism, and Samuel.
People talk about politics as if it’s this isolated, abstract concept that only matters at election time. Somebody’s politics is their world view. It’s whether they think certain human beings deserve rights. It’s how they think the world should be. And if somebody thinks that the world should be colder, meaner, less accepting and downright hostile to people that are different to them, then sure as fuck is the friendship over.
“Don’t fight hate with hate” is an example of subtle gaslighting, where our legitimate hurt & anger at the injustices we suffer is being equated to the bigotry & abuse of our oppressors.
Being angry doesn’t mean you are being hateful, it means you love yourself enough to get upset at your own mistreatment.
im not a christian but at this point i want jesus christ himself to descend from the afterlife to take the microphone out of trump’s hands and say “are yall fuckin serious”
Imagine how much Trump would hate that, having a Middle Eastern man interrupt him.
