I am not Naive to, the realities of this world.
I am not Naive to, the past pains and harms done to others that brought us to the current state of the world.
I am not Naive to, the fact that change happens slowly and rearly without violence.
I am not Naive to, the fact that I will not get everything I want financially, politically, or socially.
I am not Naive to the fact that those that oppose my beliefs and values may come to do harm to me and those like me.
I am not Naive.
But I do know what's Naive.
It is Naive, to argue from an already compromised position.
It is Naive, to not take on other struggles as your own because those that wish to do harm are on your side.
It is Naive to, forget the lessons from the past.
It is Naive to, think those worse off don't hold limitless potential.
It is Naive to, not argue for the most kind and empathetic position as possible.
Because the compromise will be less kind and empathetic than the compromises that came before.
We are not Naive.
