I know I am different.
No, I am not a pick me or anything, but I am someone who's not afraid to speak up.
While it feels like everyone around me is content with not standing up for one another, I just can’t bring myself to do the same.
A lot of people want me to shut up, but seeing what's wrong with everything and everyone... I wonder, how can nobody want to talk about this?

I have the privilege to talk and express my feelings, yet it feels like there's a thick wall of steel that's preventing my thoughts from going through paradise outside it.

Look at the world we're living in.

Are you blind to not see what's wrong with this?
We'd rather see another person die than try and catch the killer because we are too afraid of getting involved.

It’s worrying how society often accepts violence, injustice, and unfair treatment as normal, as if they are things we can’t change. Murder is sometimes excused as a result of anger or need. Victims of rape are often blamed, with people questioning their actions, clothing, or choices instead of focusing on the person who committed the crime. Discrimination—whether based on race, gender, religion, or social class—becomes so common that people see it as part of tradition or something we just have to live with.

In other words, we are fucked.

When are we going to open our eyes? When will you stand up for what is right?
