Why Bother (Me)

Worth a try

Detroit teachers stage “sickout” over horrible conditions, force schools to close

Nazis are awful. But Antifa is being just as violent if not more. You can’t fight this violence with more violence. People are being stabbed by anti-fascists. Molotov cocktails are being thrown. This violence is never the answer. And the biggest problem is that no matter what you believe, if someone decides to label you a nazi – and today you don’t need any evidence to back you up if you yell loud enough – you’re now the enemy, and if you get stabbed you probably deserved it. People are bashing other people over the head over political beliefs. This has gone too far. I’m tired of violence, I’m tired of hate. There’s too much of it in our country and both sides need to calm down because no group is innocent. Stop trying to defend either side like they’re infallible. And don’t over look the flaws on your own side because “they cause more good than harm.”

 Educate yourself. Know what’s going on in the world, and look into it for yourself. Don’t just accept whatever anybody tells you if they say it passionately enough. Think for yourself. You’re not a member of a group, you’re an individual with the ability to judge for yourself from the facts. Please, think before you start yelling and stabbing people. 

We have so many resources today. Just a quick google search can give you answers, but don’t stop there. Research things you’re passionate about. Don’t just be passionate because you read false news and believe it. 

Look at both sides of the argument. We get no where with both sides just screaming at each other and no one bothering to listen. Listen to other people, and think about what they say.
