you can’t pick and choose when you want to be an activist. EVERYTHING is intertwined- social issues, environmental issues, public health issues, etc. & by choosing to only speak on some things is so telling that you don’t actually care and/or aren’t actually educated on the topic https://twitter.com/sacreddeer/status/1266143232959758337
i’m SICK of celebrities that are so fucking loud when it comes to climate change and donate & support the shit out of greta thunderburg’s strikes/protests but they’re quiet right now.
i’m SICK of celebrities that speak up about LGBTQ+ issues and share posts/support gay white men that base their entire personalities around black women but are silent now.
i’ve said it once and i’ll say it 100 times more: YOU CANT PICK AND CHOOSE WHEN YOU WANT TO BE AN ACTIVIST. all issues, & i mean ALL issues, are connected. you cannot claim you are an environmentalist but not care about the black lives that are the most vulnerable.
you cannot claim you are an LGBTQ+ activist, but not care about the black lives that are the most vulnerable.
everyone that’s being silent right now but are the first to post on social media abt every other global issue are clearly uneducated & unwilling to even try to educate themselves on why these issues are intertwined.
it’s clear that they don’t actually care abt any of these issues enough to get all the information & be an informed activist and it’s SICK
