Quick post about an apparently controversial topic:
Black lives matter isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
Indigenous lives matter isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
Hispanic/Latinx lives matter isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
POC lives matter isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
Muslim lives matter isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
Queer and trans lives matter isn't an opinion, it's a fact.
If you're fighting for one, you're fighting for all and everyone in-between.
Of course "aLl LiVeS mAtTeR", I'm not an idiot, Karen. But these people's lives are the ones at risk. The fire brigade isn't hosing down the whole neighborhood because one house is on fire.
Use your privilege for good. Use your platform, no matter how small, for good. Follow, support and share content from POC, Queer and Trans creators. Share information and stay educated about what's going on in the world. Sign petitions, and donate. You can't donate? Simply type "Black lives matter donate" into YouTube and videos and playlists all donating ad revenue to BLM charities should pop up. Shuffle play one of the playlists. You don't have to watch it. You can just mute and open a new tab.
So, stay safe, and stay educated♥️
