I’m sorry it doesn’t make me angry that you aren’t mourning Justine Dimond.

In a perfect world, everyone would value every life equally and experience emphatic pain with each lost life. The volumes of evidence that this isn’t true are so discouraging it feels like it won’t ever change. But I hope all of those speeches about moving mountains are here for a reason.

Your reaction makes sense to me at this point in history with what has happened in our larger society.
