      There is serious violence and injustice in the world. We have leaders who came before us who demonstrated how collective action can effect change, and who have moved our society in a more just and inclusive direction versus 25, 50, 100, or 150 years ago.

      Rather than put in that hard work though you could instead just give the fuck up and wish for violence, right

          What on earth does that have to do with people looking like you being worth more than those who don’t?
