Sylvanian Families but make it crappypasta

I think it’s worth noting that the reason for this is that those who want radical change, one way or another, are those who are most susceptible to antisemitic propaganda. If ur happy w how things are you usually aren’t looking for someone to blame. If you want things to be different, then you’re more susceptible to the comforting lie of, “Rather than doing the hard work to dismantle the systems of power creating these problems, all you gotta do is get rid of the Jews who are secretly in control!” The sudden ease of the “solution” and catharsis of violence is more appealing to many than facing the cold truth that change requires real constant work to make the world better.

i feel like it's absolutely crucial in the social justice world to take "he a little confused but he got the spirit" and similar sentiments/situations as a Win. intent is so much more important than saying it right the first time! if someone is approaching with scuffed language and incorrect terms but they're visibly being as polite as they know how, that person is a friend and should be treated better than what their words might invite in someone else's mouth.

someone who's confused but who's got the spirit has the best thing, which is respect. the other stuff is secondary. I'd take someone who's messing up but doing their best to treat me respectfully any day over someone who's using the right words to do me wrong.
