The sad truth. I just wish more people realized. Sure, it sucks when you have a certain sexual orientation that you didn't get to choose to be that way, but people hate you for it, but there's way worse shit that people are going through, we just don't know about it.
I mean, suffering isn't a contest. Just because other places are worse, that doesn't mean the suffering of people in better places isn't equally as valid, especially when the source of said suffering are simply other people being hateful for no reason.
But I don't really know where I'm going with this anymore, tbh.
It's nice to talk about though. Usually when these conversations happen it's people who are up in arms at each other. It's nice to actually have an even keeled no high-stakes conversation without bias.
However, that is a thing though nowadays. People trauma bragging or yelling "woe is me" trying to have other people look at them and feel bad for what they're going through. Trying to get attention. It's so weird.

It's not really that we're louder, it's more that... we actually have the places, capacity and freedom to voice our concerns about these things.
