@ranrampant because this question here is a really important example of why our only resource can’t be others - even those who would do anything for us cannot control all of the variables, and neither can we.
@ranrampant a big thing that has been a genuine life-saver for me in the last few years has been building a “game plan” or “first aid kit” for these situations - either literally or just as a list in my phone of soothing and safe actions etc
@vivijellies @ChaosIsCrying it says a lot about this person that they are assuming you’re giving people “excuses” because of your word choice
lots of things are privileges that are also nice to have and use, like. the privilege to have an education and literacy! the privilege of a roof over their head!
the worst part is that there is still a human being on the other side of mass production. there is still someone making these garments, people are just pretending theyre not real - or are otherwise not bothered by someone working for pennies to make their socks
mass-production of consumer goods has made it not just impossible to charge what your time is worth, it has made people actually laugh in the face of the bare minimum concept of paying a human being anything beyond exact cost of materials
@ranrampant reverse image searching this made me so sad and mad to realize i truly had no idea whose face this was
it is a story that is so blatant in the lesson it teaches us that it almost feels like a deeply disturbed parable we tell kids to teach them not to lie
@ranrampant I actually don’t think I had seen her face so explicitly, before.
In general, Emmett Till’s story was diluted heavily in the rural south - the teachers talked about this as a tragedy, but essentially refused to even discuss the person whose fault this violence WAS. like. wtf.
