God damnit.
You have to go out of your way to be a hateful bigot. You have to try and go out and be hateful.
It's so much harder than just not caring. Not caring is so much easier. Who cares that they're having a drag show? Who cares that they're doing their thing. It's not hurting you. Just let people live their lives. People get so worked up over something they could solve by just not thinking about it. Boggles my mind.
Right? Like I don't care for basketball but I'm not like "it's a sin they're so tall" or "how dare they throw things".
But I guess it's easy to latch onto an out group and hate them instead of dealing with real problems.
Related thought: why is it so rare for someone to threaten to shoot up billionaires or their boss that's stealing their wages or the factory owner that's dumping mercury in their water or the factory owner that's employing children or the cops that murder people on video or any number of things.
Because drag queens in their skirts and high heels make them want to fuck a dude and that makes them angry.
Because those people would be prosecuted
This is the main reason that I'll never understand it. It takes so, so, so much energy to be that hateful. Do they have literally nothing in their lives that they could be devoting that energy to. Like get a fucking hobby, holy shit.
There's even actual enough reasons to be angry at people, such as hearing about senseless violence in the news, or seeing people litter, or not respect other people on the cycling path, or put their garbage in the recycle bin, etc.
It gets exhausting after a while so I mostly stop caring. But those are actual reasons. Why hate on random things that don't affect anyone when there's so much actual things to hate people for?
Exactly. Imagine hating someone because they don’t fit your worldview. Just how privileged you think you are. That’s why I define conservatives as people who think the world must conform to their biases.
Because without giving all the fucks about things that have nothing to do with them, these people would have absolutely nothing. It's their entire identity. And truth be told, I feel bad for em, until they rear their ugly bigotry, then I enjoy going back to my fulfilling life and remember that they choose this life over finding a hobby that they're too lazy to go after.
