Do you tease lalafells?

[Awha]

You're advocating for complacency.

To me your words are translating to 'yes, you were violated severely and that was wrong. but if you fight back against your violator you'll only be hurt far worse than you are now. leave it behind so that the violator can move on with their lives and you can move on with yours.

You're telling us to do nothing. If someone refers to me as a slur I should accept that because 'well, racism has always existed, so it's okay if that person calls me the n-word. i should just ignore it.'

As mentioned glad it worked out for you but that is not always the case. Generally what I am saying is people should do what is best for them first and foremost, not just in that moment but also down the line. You did what you felt was right and cool but for many others that is not the case and for change to happen more people would have to speak up and face potential consequences for doing so and I do not think we should be promoting that people should risk their careers and lives on the promise of change when we cannot guarantee such things. Though not saying you are doing that.

Though yes I will say when it comes to verbal slurs I do fall into the camp of okay so what. I do also fall into generally people give far too much power to words and people would be better off if they did not take it personally.

Though hey if others want to try and change the world one complaint at a time cool fighting the system is just not my style I will just do me and move on with life, life is far too short and can end far too easily to try and write the wrongs that have plagued or world for years and probably will still plague our worlds for many years after I am gone.
