We are currently living in a timeline where women can be thrown in jail for having an abortion, but seven men who gang rape a woman only have to write an essay to “think about what they did”.
At a family dinner, my uncle said women were "too weak" for physically demanding jobs. My grandma looked at him and said, "I gave birth without anesthesia. You called an ambulance because of kidney stones." The table went completely silent.
Growing up hearing “Wikipedia isn't a valid source” and then entering a workplace where people say “just ask ChatGPT” is a surprisingly strange timeline
WWII Veteran and Purple Heart recipient Robert Hilliard:
"Next week I'll be 101 years old. In February 1944 when I was 18 years old I was inducted into the army and what they taught me to do there was to kill people who set up detention camps. Can you imagine how I felt earlier this year when they announced that one of the future detention camps would be at that same camp landing in Florida? We have a fascist, a fascist government, that allows innocent people to be put in detention camps and incarcerated."
