honestly ๐Ÿ˜ญ my mind has been soooo full lately, from the election to the covid to the racism issue, and hatred toward p.o.c. im just so pi**** off with the current issues rn. this opinion is kina weird but honestly i believe this whole covid stuff was planned or even knew about before being publicly shared. idk ๐Ÿ˜ฉ but the quarantine has had negative effects and im really not digging em, here in my city they r planning on opening the school's and im just really scared to go back, its almost school for us here in florida and im not looking forward too it ๐Ÿ˜ค and the racism and "white power" stuff has me SO SO SOOOO outraged, i can't believe that people actually think they deserve a "white lives matter" movement its just absolutely disgusting. like the African American community r the ones who need the justice, the ones who need the attention, because for years and years they were discriminated
- based on the color of their skin, which is SO dumb. it just really hurts to see that poc lives' are being lost all because people who cant take the fact that they have melanin.
but anyways
sorry for the rant ๐Ÿ˜ญ

๐Ÿ˜ฉ thank you, i feel like it helped ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿฝ sometimes when you have SO much bottled up in your head it gets to you so letting all of that out was so helpful. i feel like having a political opinion is really important sometimes , especially at times like this, and yeah the whole election thing isn't looking so great rn ๐Ÿ˜” and YES not having to need a movement is a good thing, because the whole point of the BLM movement is too acquire justice. whites don't need that movement because they already have rights and they don't need anything else. ๐Ÿ˜ค and you are so so kind and genuine OMLL LIKE THIS IS WHAT PC NEEDS MORE OF ! but i fr applaude you for the safe place you give to everybody on your pages ๐Ÿ’— ๐Ÿ’˜
yes ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ i didnโ€™t know i needed that reminder ๐Ÿ˜…
trying to stay positive has been difficult for me lately. the issues themselves are extremely disheartening, but the division and polarization of people who disagree with each other right now is truly terrifying. problems always have a solution, though it may not be a simple one, I believe they always do. however, solutions can never be reached when people will not listen to other people. our systems of communication and our listening skills have really tanked recently, from what Iโ€™ve seen, and that is what is the most troubling to me personally. without respect and empathy for those who are different than ourselves, progress can never be made...
any tips for staying positive while also trying to stay informed and have tough conversations with others?๐Ÿงก
