Agree on the small audience. But it’s worth it from time to time to speak up— especially when the vocal majority’s perspective has an obvious bigger perspective that encompasses all. Degree is everything. People need to see that they basically just executed a young a man publicly. Imagine he was on the spectrum, imagine he’s your son, all of 23, and socially awkward. He’s not coming from a place of vast power and was genuinely trying to figure out why policies put him at a disadvantage. He came up with a research paper for god sake. It’s a valid question, and it’s small pictured to assume everyone should just get it.
This didn’t help. It made things worse. And it’s a problem that people can’t expand their perspective past what immediately benefits them. This is the problem of our time, perhaps of existence. 2 wrongs don’t make a right. People only see past themselves when it immediately benefits them, and enjoy watching executions when it validates their ego. That’s really all this showed. And the fact that the people behaving this way are the ones supposedly doing things to evolve humanity (as these policies do), just makes you wonder how true their intentions really are.
1 step forward. 2 steps back.
