It's stunning how many people seem to forget that there are other countries on the planet that use dollars and weren't involved in Vietnam. No, I'm not making an assumption. The person who posted this is Canadian.

Y'all really need to take a step back and reflect a little bit.

Only to live during a time where hate and sexism was rampant. Nah, chief, I don't wanna live in that period. I'm good.

Look around, you already do. You always did. There's a lot more people willing to do the right thing and speak out against it now... but I wouldn't count on that lasting much longer.

You're right. But even if we lost this time, we can come back from this. Who knows how long that will take, but we can fix this.

Edit: Guess I ruffled a pessimist's feathers with this comment.

Look at this edgelord right here in his 20s. This obsession on Lemmy with killing oneself is fucking sick.

Bitch, I'm 42. They've been pulling this crap long enough that there's more than one generation who are catastrophically fucked and well aware of it.
