Actually a really good example to wake you up from this is what you picture in your head when I say terrorist. And then remember that white people have been terrorising the world for a lot longer than the people who you probably imagine.
I struggle to understand why other white people refuse to realise they’re racist. You can be at every rally, supporting every cause, it doesn’t matter. We were raised to be inherently racist, and the sooner you face up to that the sooner you can actually work on solving the problems.
Prejudice is automatic in most of our upbringings, and if you’re living your life saying ‘oh but I’m not racist’, you’re never actually gonna get rid of those prejudices.
u know what … i changed my mind… all u scientists out there who worked ur butts off just to have your research purposefully ignored by the government… do your science thing and bring back the dinosaurs… catch them ignoring you when a velociraptor is our next president…. like ding dong what’s that? it’s science, it doesn’t care about your silly ignorant opinion… it’s back with a vengeance… and it’s hungry, bitch
