First of all: I don't have a single clue where to post this as I am not going to put this in a meme. Political focus is one thing that's always infuriating. Like, just imagine atleast 6 or more years ago, Greta Thunberg let Trump be framed as a dirty money-hungry pig for his climate politics and the whole World stood with her, while now Multi-who-knows-what-aires can do anything they like when someone merely lays a wrong eye at a Mass-LLM-center (Not calling it THE word because I HATE it). But from all these active themes that keep switching focus as propaganda and the "woke mind" spreads, there was always one thing that kept devolving (big word): racism. Putting aside ideologies, it always starts with a new political focus. For example: Right wing party gets the government = Oh now it's these pesky [insert minority (doesn't have to be an ethnic group)]. But taken away this filled out rant, I learned to hate a new word: Alien. Can you imagine, having every single thing here "modernised". Gendering, pronounciations, other things put into this list, but why not atleast take a word which is way to general and unthought of and put a consideration behind it. You think that when the so-called "aliens" try to exist with us in harmony, 'cause idk, they lost their planet or something, live on this earth have family, live for generations and go to a job meeting only to be addressed as the alien (girl, boy, woman, (list goes on)), they would be okay with that?? Now as some of you may have realised that is kinda a familiar story isn't it. Integrating yourself or being forced to integrate in a system, having to go through trauma, unacceptance, etc. living there for decades only to be judged by for only looking different or for being from somewhere else. Hmmmmm... might I wonder what that sounds like. The only funny thing is, that that scenario I just opened with the "aliens" never had a name attached to it until now. Moral of the story is: There is none. All hope is lost talking to an egotostical moron and the worst is when they still win. I'd also hope as a person - not a "white person" or anything else - that people will understand or atleast try to comprehend what other people have to go through in order to not even be accepted fully. Be safe out there, try to be rational, hear out any and every rationally formed opinion and try to be enlighting. Never force anyone to listen but also stay determined to your goal. P.S. I thought over other wording for a "non-earther" but even stuff like extraterrestrial is just the same. Another Moral: FOR WHOEVERS SAKE, DON'T LABEL PEOPLE! P.P.S. Have you ever thought why people seperate themselfs on a "higher level" even though the greatest genetic differences between modern humans (homo homo sapiens) is not even a percent? And even if, bananas share 55% DNA with humans, but they are somehow more than just accepted (stilled blamed for a bit of radiation though). |

Brother, please, proof read your posts before pasting a wall of text. Second - I generally agree racist terminology is infuriating but what I find way more infuriating is how some people don't think it's racist. I still see clips of Fox anchors & other conservative spokes people refer to "Dirty rats", "Illegal aliens", or even just "terrorists" when discussing someone who overstayed their visa. Which is hateful and racist, but what feels underhand is their belief that it isn't racist or hateful. You don't call someone a "dirty rat" or an "criminal alien" if you're discussing a factual matter objectively.
This fact is mildly infuriating to me. It only holds up when considering fundemental building blocks of DNA, which sure, DNA at a fundemental level functions the same for all life. The part that makes DNA meaningful (The ordering / "data") has almost no overlap of a banana. "Harry Potter & The Bible have 90% of the same words, they're basically the same book" if you exclude ordering... |

Yeah you're right, when I'm in the loop I just don't think many about what I've spoken. The fact with the Banana was just a statement to make my words feel stronger and I know myself, that that says absolutely nothing. And especially Rowlings' works are disgraceful. |

I get that you're exhausted. It's okay to resent the world and feel what you feel Just don't lose hope. Nobody can take that away, no matter how hard they try |
