Antiracism - Blog Posts
The golden rule is, essentially, this: don’t be a fuckin’ dick. I’ve seen a lot of people violating this rule. Racism, sexism, anti-Semitism (note: NOT BDS and other Palestinian support groups. Those are not anti-Semitic and to argue so is problematic af. Not up for discussion.), anti-LGBQT+ behavior are all things you that we all need to work towards eradicating. These realizations can be uncomfortable and painful and you’ll make mistakes in your journey forward, but this is work that needs to be done. Be a good human. If you wouldn’t say something to someone’s face in real life, please do not be an Instagram bully. . . . . . . . . . #bravotv #bravotvaddict #bravotvmemes #bravotvnetwork #bravotvjunkie #bravotvnews #bravotvhousewives #bravotvshow #bravotvmeme #bravolebrities #andycohen #rhoa #rhop #rhonj #rhony #rhoc #rhobh #rhoslc #rhod #shahsofsunset #andycohen #antiracism #antisemitism #antisexism #dayofsilence #dayofsocialmediasilence #amplifymelanatedvoices #millenialmemes #bravocon #belowdeckmed #southerncharm https://www.instagram.com/p/CS9zPu4riAh/?utm_medium=tumblr

You might be more than one. You might be different ones at different times. 🫶🏽🫶🏽 you might not be one of these. There are more roles 💪🏽 but this is an amazing intro.
You can’t just like the idea and envision yourself in one of these roles you have to figure out how to be about it ♥️🫶🏽

A small rant
I hate how right-wingers try to excuse spreading hateful or ignorant ideas as "just a joke" or "I'm just asking questions". Like they somehow think that jokes or questions cannot be rhetorical.
It's like some people think that ideas just don't affect the real world in any tangible form. Like they are just having a purely theoretical conversation that effects nobody at all.
People on the right need to realize that rhetoric is very capable of inspiring violence. Saying shit like "trans people are groomers" is the kind of shit that gets trans people killed.
And public figures who advocate hateful rhetoric will always try to distance themselves from the consequences of their words, saying shit like "I never said I condone violence", even when violence is the natural logical conclusion of their words. Yall cannot act like implying that Jews run the world is not a call to action to commit violence against them, that is pure bullshit.
A common argument that I hear from conservatives is that "people of the past were not so sensitive like people of today"
Mf people in 1950's America threw a tantrum because someone of a different skin color wanted to drink at the same fountain as them. Don't give me this bs about how people back then "weren't sensitive".
Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)
For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here
Words
I dont have the words,
I never have.
I dont have the words of leaders,
I dont have the kind of words that hold power.
I dont have the words to tell people that fighting is useless.
War is futile but my words are pointless.
I dont have the words to teach man that war and violence does nothing.
I dont have the words to show them the horrors and destruction they cause
When they could just sit down and talk because
They have the words.
And even if I were given a platform,
To yell,
And scream;
These cowards would still go to war.
And I’d make a fool of myself because
I dont have the words.
Even if you were to extract the idea from my brain:
There’d never be enough words that can be formulated from any lexicon to even begin to understand the sentiment because:
I dont have the words.
I dont have the words to show my outrage at people’s disregard of their planet.
I dont have the words to scold the past generations for making us clean up their mess.
I dont have the words to show what their greed and negligence  has done to their home.
I don’t have the words to show people how they are condemning their children with their oversight of their planet.
Even if there was a live stream, where I could rant and cry at the world;
They’d still destroy their only home with overwhelming apathy.
And I’d make a fool of myself because
I dont have the words.
It frustrates me every day that 
I dont have the words.
I don’t have the words to show people how little their leaders care about them.
I don’t have the words to teach people how badly the bigotry can affect people. 
I don’t have the words to persuade people to be even just a little nicer. I don’t have the words to teach people why “all lives matter” inherently negates “black lives matter”.
I don’t have the words to explain why Cis and Straight people don’t get a pride flag. 
I don’t have the words to stop people is prejudices.
I don’t have the words to educate people on the differences between Islam, and though the terrorists who pervert it.
I don’t have the words to show the world the vile things are refugees and immigrants have go through just to be ridiculed by the country they’ve escaped to.
I don’t have the words to teach people why women say, “kill all men”.
I don’t have the words to convince people that anyone other than native cis white straight men should have rights. 
Even in a meeting with anyone who have the slightest shred of influence,
I could scream,
I could rant,
I could yell,
I could cry,
I could shout,
I could break down.
But they still oppress people for things they can’t control.
and I’d make a fool of myself because
I don’t have the words.
I’d scream from the rooftops,
but I don’t have the words.
If I did, I tell you every day how beautiful you are:
I tell you the sunsets are jealous of your smile.
I tell you that God’s favourite Angel is envious because you were chiselled out of the purest Alexandrite.
Id tell you Apollo’s harp is nowhere near to the sound of your laugh.
Id tell you you look like a Taylor Swift song.
Every day i try to go and tell you how pretty you are.
But you’re standing there with,
All your friends and,
All the fourteen eyes on me because I’m interrupting the conversation for…what exactly?
To stammer and stutter and make an absolute fool of myself in front of them because,
I just don’t have the words.
You’d think if you looked at what I’ve done,
“Now that’s a man who has the words”
But my brain is just a big bowl of twisted scribbles,
Rolled up into one big knot,
And whenever I try and find the words to speak,
They just tumble out in to a vomit of turmoil.
And when I try and tell you, even though I want to be more, that I just want to be friends;
the words just jumble up and travelling an endless loop from my mouth to my brain to my stomach to my mouth because
I just don’t have the words.
Yesterday you said that was the funniest thing I’d said,
And he told me, “those words were yours, you have the words”
But I fumble and care and overthink, and I can’t pick the right words.
What if I say the wrong thing?
What if I make you think worse of me?
What if I offend someone?
I wish I could speak some
I wish I could find the words or the courage 
I wish there was a VR world where I could practice saying it so I can get it right.
And I wouldn’t make a fool of myself because
I’d have the words.
I know I don’t have the words to stop wars.
I know I don’t have the words to fix climate change.
I know I definitely don’t have the words to save people from bigotry. But maybe one day,
I can have the words to tell you how I feel about you.

I keep seeing these people on TikTok — not sure if they’re white supremacists, neo-Nazis, or just bored and brain-rotted — saying things like “never mix your white snow with dirt.”😃They say “don’t mix” like their ancestors weren’t already remixing within the same three branches.It’s always the ones with cousins for parents preaching about “purity ” . I’d never pollute my bloodline with yours — I have standards....... and a full set of chromosomes.maybe I’m just getting worked up because I happen to be mixed.Anyway, somebody, please confiscate the phones of these inbred clowns.🤣
