Comments closed for a reason!
I don't need a thousand comments saying they either agree or disagree.
Please DO NOT Comment My Main Page or Note Me About The Stamp/Subject Matter.
It will be disregarded and you autoblocked!
Occasionally, I read blogs or some kind of comment saying things like "If you are white, you are automatically racist."
"Black people or any POC can't be racist! Being hateful towards white isn't racist!"
"Screw Cis/Straight people! They are the death to LGBTQ!"
As a POC myself, being born Asian and Native American and having nasty comments towards me by both white and non white folks,
and being genderfluid while still exploring my sexuality, I highly disagree.
The world isn't black and white like that.
There isn't just black and white.
Hate isn't something you're born to do. That's like saying animals are born to hate too because they are born.
But we know racism and homophobia/transphobia is found in one species.
We learned from somewhere, influenced by someone or something and even people of a minority can be hateful.
Thanks to Disney's Zootopia, I was able to find I had a prejudice too and was able to reflect on it.
I won't say what of but I was able to look back on it, where it came from and concluded it was
because I was hurt by the same group, one of
my earliest experience with said group too, so I began to feel a distaste for people of that group.
Thus, can come from being hurt from that group especially if it's our earliest experience with said group.
We all want to believe there is no hate in us. That we possibly can't hate especially if we belong to a group that are victims of the worst hate crimes, but the fact of the matter is we're all human. We all feel love, pain, fear and most of all hate.
We can have a prejudice and not even realize it!
That's part of becoming equal or fighting for equality. Not just fighting the demons of others but even in our selves.
When you realize where it comes from, how it can form and even the steps you can take to better yourself,
then you can take part in bringing about the changes you want to see.
