Some of you think of Cops as kind of a symbolic figure representing "telling you what to do" & you're Posting things like "acab includes fandom discourse" and I thuink the 80% white website needs to remember the reason why we hate cops is because they kill people

As an activist, I firmly reject the notion that violence is useless to the downtrodden
As a slam poet, I firmly reject that the notion that speech is inherently non-violent or passive action.
As a philosopher and a linguist, I firmly reject the notion that kindness bears synonymity with empathy, sympathy or niceness.
In fact, kindness, can often be sincerity to the point of unpleasantry.
Kindness to a victim can mean refusing to act on empathy for abusers.
In fact, kindness can absolutely mean abandonment of people, places and things that no longer serve such sincerity and decency.
At the end of the day, sympathy and empathy are emotional responses felt at an internal level or extended to another while niceness and kindness are actions and values to express.

It’s so much moee I want to say like all artsy shit aside & whatever the fuck I post or ‘yap’ about, but I’ll keep it there. Just pay attention to these kids because it’s shit happening that shouldn’t be
