Rather than spew all of my thoughts on a medium that is meant for entertainment and daily communication with friends/family, I've decided to post this in here. Will anyone read or comment? Who knows. Either way, I'm getting it off my chest which makes me special I'm sure.
I must admit that I have NOT chosen to read up on what Americans are whining about now in regards to their newly elected president. I've seen bits and pieces of parents pulling children out of school so that they will not witness President Obama's speech about education. That in itself...tells me that this act alone is proof of the LACK of education that should exist in our world.
People are screaming bloody murder and brainwashing attempts...let's see...if you shield your child from everything that you do not believe in or understand, is that not some type of brainwashing? "Believe and see only what I see fit as I am the parent and what I say is law" Nice.
This is not pornography, gratuitous violence or discrimination (Do you remember a little thing called Segragation?) which is always available and free on your CNN channel daily. This is a speech. Given by a president. A President who was elected by his "People".
What a backwards fucking way of thinking. There. I've said it. Thankfully, not eveyone in the US feels that Obama is the Anti-Christ. However, the tolerant comments are never the ones to stand out as they do not evoque any type of frustrating emotion inside of most people.
I was just asked why I care since I am in Canada.
I care because I've always cared about bullshit accusations and judgements thrown at people. I care because I am trying to raise a child in this crazy society to have balls but to also understand compassion and tolerance. To not be swayed by one's gender, colour or religion. So when I see people being ridiculed for what they believe in, yes, it does make me react. I've said it many times, you can't be a fucking idiot because you like grapefruit and I don't. Opinions are what they are. OPINIONS. And for you to share them, fine. But don't call me an idiot because I don't share yours and DON'T try to make me change my mind.
And now I've lost my train of thought as I am thouroughly disgusted and frustrated at how small minded and belittling people can be for no fucking reason.
If any one reading this feels targeted, DEAL WITH IT as I haven't pointed my finger at anyone in particular. A POST in particular has made me think yes, however, this is not the only thing that has triggered this rant that I am on. If you feel like this is aimed at you, then you need to find the reason as to why you feel this way. And do something about it. Something...POSITIVE.

I love how friendships, no matter how one sided they might have been, are worth throwing away for when it comes to these types of arguments. Makes me feel really fucking special.
ReplyDeleteCurious comment. I was otherwise going to say preach on queeny! I speak the same words quite often, and proof is always present if one hopes to counter my expression of equality. I honestly do not understand how someone can disagree. But I cannot always say what color my kettle is, for at moments of frustration I will find myself lashing out at the neh-sayer with their own words; slipping into the shoes of that which spurred my frustration. But i will own up to my mistakes, because it was one and not a socially-acceptable everyday occurance. It is this hippie sensabilityand knowledge that there are others like us that keeps me waking up and breathing in and out each morning; otherwise I believe I would suffocate in such a dense world. But I digress. It is comforting know that you are a deserving mother who really cares about thier child by instilling morals that fit the definition instead of blanketed biggotries. Hopefully someday our children will be friends and know what that means. cheers, queeny.
