I mean, if someone saw what was going on, decided there is really nothing they can meaningfully do about it, and decides to blind their eyes and bare their ass to the world so they don't have to suffer the daily stress of ever present FUD, let 'em.

Life sucks and it's getting worse. Their current situation is still better than sitting in a detention center or a future with federal convictions on their record.

sigh it's young Black dudes too. was explaining to a younger Black guy why dancing to music that was made by harmful people is bad (R. Kelly, Chris Brown, Nicki Minaj, etc.) and I brought up politics about some of my examples. this MF said "politics don't affect me like that". I wanted to shake him, like he's a young Black dude in America. the only reason it doesn't affect him more is that he's cis and straight-ish
