Hell yes fuck everybody who can't survive without services on their own inside their well-stocked homes .
If there was an easier way for ppl to confess to not giving a single shit about poor ppl, addicted ppl, mentally ill ppl, shut-ins, ppl with chronic illnesses, ppl with no indoor plumbing, ppl with disabilities & really just consider them invisible, i don't know what it wld be
And all of the hundreds of things I cant even think of. Ppl could not understand, because it took a convoluted explanation, why i couldn't drive & why it meant i had to quit my job & was stuck miles away from food stores & all things with no bus within miles

The Boers thought they were "indigenous" to Africa. And so on.
Speaking of this crazy stuff, theres always a few weirdos on here who try to conflate this kind of stuff with 'well the "Native Americans" also migrated here' for crying out loud not at all the same fucking thing

I thought about these goofballs when I learned about that ancestor the other day & traced them back to the King of England. Those lines I could trace on that ancestry site to around 500. Obviously the only reason it was possible was because of the royal >
family being in there & so there's a historical record they could access to have that information. By around 500 I'd clicked thru what started as Scottish ppl, then thru "English" ppl marrying various members of European royal families, some crusaders, then they became French >
for a while, then Welsh or whatever that was back then (Gaelic?). Dozens and dozens of generations, i dont know how many ppl. And this was "only" about 1500 years back. Most of us can't tell you for certain where our hundreds of ancestors who were alive 3000 years ago were >

As we all are aware & no one needs to be told, the internet & social media provide the opportunity for the worst bullies to say the worst things they can with relative impunity and generally few if any ever adverse consequences. Its just how it is, its physically possible for >
anyone to type anything that goes online and so it occurs. When I first got on twitter I would routinely quote tweet racist or offensive replies i got or tweets I saw with the typical "look at this terrible thing" that I think is a pretty natural & understandable response >
and usually results in what we're hoping for, that being decent ppl to confront the person who tweeted it and tell them what a piece of shit they are & so forth. Nothing wrong with any of it and I think its natural if you're not a terrible person to want to trust in the power>
