To the people with [insert cutesy word/literally anything but Black] Lives Matter in your usernames--you& #39;re not witty. You& #39;re not funny. If saying black lives matter rubs you the wrong way or makes you uncomfortable you& #39;re overdue for some serious introspection.
Lately if I enter a random chat or voice call and someone starts off with "Yeah it& #39;s really crazy here/over there..." like 9/10 the convo turns into a rhetoric for ALM/BlueLM. I just dip. There& #39;s no use arguing with these kinds of people. You can drop resources...
...and try to give them a new perspective but it& #39;s just never worked for me. I& #39;m not expelling energy on people who are content on being naive if not straight up racist. That& #39;s not me giving these people a pass, I& #39;m just not giving those people my time. They don& #39;t deserve it.
But this thread happened because lately I& #39;ve been trying to be more active on Furry Amino. It& #39;s clearly targeted more towards the teen audience but with that being said holy shit educate your children/teens on racism.
"They& #39;re just kids, we were all naive then" is not applicable to the youth who pop into voice chats to scream "n****r" 50 times at supersonic volume while sending racist/xeno/trans/homo - phobic memes.
I read a profile of a teen on Furry Amino where they note at the top of their bio: "If you see me in racist chats I am not a racist but my friend is".
???
There& #39;s something seriously broken here. The youth is our future, seeing and hearing stuff like this is scary too.

I have so much more to say on this topic but I have something else I would like to talk about as well while I have the mental energy to get this out.
