Asshole
A personal note…
to everyone who discriminates against LGBT individuals,
to everyone who feels that their religion is the one and only true spiritual path,
to everyone who advocates violence and hate over peace and love,
to everyone who acts to eliminate the rights of those they don’t agree with,
to everyone who thinks pressing “1” for English is a problem,
to everyone who believes that America is superior without ever traveling to other countries,
to everyone who harbors racist thoughts, no matter how subtle or subdued,
to everyone who supports censorship in the face of the truth,
to everyone who feels access to affordable health care is a privilege, not a right,
to everyone who burns books, bans movies, and demonizes music,
to everyone who doesn’t support equal marriage and tax rights for all,
to everyone who denounces public schooling and the idea of free college,
to everyone who blames Islam for all the world’s terrorism,
to everyone who destroys the environment in the presence of alternative options,
to everyone who fears different communities, cultures, and ways of life,
and to everyone who tramples others in their own selfish pursuit of excessive wealth:
Stop. Being. Assholes.
