Your looks don’t define who you are. Died hair and piercings don’t make you a punk, pink dresss don’t make you a princess, etc.
Everyone is deserving of respect. Except for rapists, homophones, transphobes, misogynists, misandrists, and murderers.
Not liking popular things does not make you ‘better’ than everyone else. If you’re a person who says things like ‘I’m not like other people,’ then you aren’t better or worse than them. Popular things are not inherently bad. There are a lot of popular celebrities, trends, songs, clothing styles, etc, that are great and there is absolutely nothing wrong with liking them. ‘Mainstream’ and ‘bad’ are not synonymous, nor are ‘unpopular’ and ‘cool’. Don’t diminish the interests of others just because you yourself do not agree.
The existence of LGBTQ+ people is not harming you in any way. Same-sex couples dating and getting married does not harm you, nor does it involve you. Don’t attempt to diminish the freedom of other innocent people simply because you’re homophobic. The LGBTQ+ community has experienced more pain and disrespect than many cisgender heterosexual people can relate to. From conversion therapy, to being fired due to your orientation, to being bullied and harassed daily because of who you are, the community has been through a lot. Regardless of your beliefs and opinions, please just leave LGBTQ+ people alone. The way they live their lives does not include you, and they are just as deserving of respect as any cisgender heterosexual person.
Pedophelia is wrong. It is a serious issue, and if we keep normalizing and being accepting of this disgustingness, than we’re going to forget the fact that we are talking about the well-being of children, whom we seem to care quite a bit about when it comes to transgender people using the bathroom and abortion. This is much more important than either of those things, and we all seem to be overlooking that.
The people you choose to associate yourself with are the people others will look at when judging your character. If your ‘friends’ are bad people, you will also be seen as a bad person. Be careful who you hang out with; they help to shape your personality.
Unless you are vegan, pro-immigration, anti-conversion therapy (centers that LGBT+ children are sent to to be ‘corrected’), against children being sold into sex slavery, etc, than you are not pro-life. You are pro-birth. Please remember this.
Just because someone is caucasian, heterosexual, cisgender, and not in need of money does not mean that they cannot be depressed. Depression is an mental illness; it doesn’t care about your position in life. Don’t disrespect depressed people.
If you find yourself in a situation where you aren’t happy, please, do anything in your power to get yourself out of it. Even if it makes others unhappy. When necessary, put your well-being first.
There’s nothing wrong with being poor, and these people deserve to live happily just as much as any rich person. Respect people based on their character, not their monetary status.
