v. THE ANGRY FEMINISTS VS. THE IGNORANT!

I AM the angry feminist - whatever the fuck that even means.
My passion makes me angry, and my political views make me boring but GOD FORBID I care about something other than myself; something other than my own personal problems.
There's women under oppression and there's males with body issues and there's children being sold into slavery! There's gay, lesbian, bi, and pan people who are threatened with death for being who they are, and there's racism that is alive and well in every society in existence.
And fucking hell! That is just the beginning of it.
so, yes, I am ANGRY.
In fact, I am LIVID;
People label me as that angry feminist as if I should be ashamed of myself; people will roll their eyes and murmur "that sucks," when they learn they have to listen to a "FEMINIST RANT" and holy fucking hell, if I have to listen to one more complaint about the movement that did so much for today's society I am going to scream, DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY FUCKING IDEA?
You can close your eyes and pretend you don't see what we are trying to do. You can slap your hands over your eyes and say racism doesn't exist because you've never seen it.
I'm so sick of ignorant people walking through their lives with the phrase, "ignorance is bliss" when it is ignorance that is plague on our society! Ignorance is the reason I'm SO FUCKING ANGRY!
Remove your hands from your eyes or I will have to cut them off and force you to see what's happening. Open your god damn eyes and look at the embers and the ash that is left behind as we fight this fucking war:
THE ANGRY FEMINISTS VS. THE IGNORANT
I've been fighting this war and I'm beyond prepared to rid society of this plague, I even made posters. I hope you'll fight; and I hope you'll choose the right side.
