There’s a joke book that this kid is reading that’s nothing but homophobic jokes and the parents are just laughing it off. There’s encouraging innocence and normalizing behavior. This is the kind of stuff that people grow up using as a “defense” for their bigotry when they get older. It’s not even like they’re attempting to highlight why said jokes are bad (punch down jokes are almost always bad).
That last bit re: Christianity. I wish people really understood how the religion (and moreso its advocates) eradicated so much culture and history over the years. What does it matter if Jesus was Black (go re-read your Bible) if history was borderline deleted to say that?
My goals aren’t a moonshot. They’re not sparkly or grandiose. I might have too close of an attachment to them but I do think I can get to them.
Seeing (only men, as always) complain about their “inability to speak freely” is my reminder that this day definitely ends in a Y.
