I equate it to trying to hold a rational, reasonable conversation with a guy screaming on a street corner: not going to happen.
Walk on by and go about your day.

Thank you! Seems this tragedy could absolutely have been avoided. The guy didn't want to have to run it through inspections! Vile.
Could you please explain this or point me to a source on this?
I heard that this game is actually pretty good.
If I can't see it right in front of me, right now, it doesn't exist! That's just science!
Personally, I don't think you have to try to get along with someone who wants to cause harm to or supress the rights of certain people that they don't like/agree with .
It's wrong, and it makes me sick.
Had to cut off a dear friend of mine recently for just that reason, and we'd been friend for nearly 20 years. I don't have to tolerate hate or intolerance in order to "get along" with people.
This particular group/instance seems to be in support of "equity", not "equality".
If that is an issue for you, there are many many many other places better suited for your needs & wants.
There's not a single person here who cannot infer from the context that the term "minorities" used in this instance in referring to "historically oppressed racial minorities". You also know this. This is semantics, at this point.
But I'll bite: in your opinion, what term/word should be used instead of "minorities"?
The problem with people who have this mindset is that they've simply dehumanized people who struggle.
Poor people? Political agenda. LGBTQ? Political agenda. Minorities? Political agenda.
They refuse to think about ways these people can be helped or why these people are in these positions in the first place.
It bothers them because it is not a problem they have to deal with, so when it pops up, they get annoyed because "I've never seen/experienced this happening in my own life, so it's either A). wildly exaggerated or B). it doesn't actually exist."
They're not thinking about the people who face these issues on a constant basis: they're thinking about "the issue" removed from who it is affecting. Thus: it's political. So of course they hate when it's brought up. It's meaninglessness to them! You're just trying to "stir the pot" if you mention it.
Nope nope sorry sorry! I just woke up and misread your comment as disagreeing with the sentiment, but I just reread it and realize that you were in agreement. I was just trying to explain my view further.
Sorry!! Lol I'll try to post less when I'm still tired!!
I literally ripped up a giant amount of my lawn to put in a shitty but sizable wildflower garden. Also ripped up almost the entire perimeter and put in an unreasonable amount of lilies to surround my property.
All because when I moved in, I saw people just casually cutting through my yard.
