Then perhaps take the opportunity to sit down, shut up, and listen to those who do? Or are you convinced that your privilege makes you more informed than we are about our own situation and needs?
I can continue to sit on the sidelines, but it eats me up inside seeing so much hate. I genuinely want to offer any help I can. I'm horrified by what the GOP are pushing in this country, actively vote against it, and support causes where I can. The GOP will pat each other on the back while they send anyone woker than a blonde white Christian man to the death camps. Meanwhile a progressive will point out that their blind unity is a dangerous threat and be set upon by those they fundamentally agree with.
I generally don't join these conversations, but I do think the first comment in this tree has merit. I also apologize for causing you any more stress, it was definitely not my intent.
