Political Memes

"If you want to be left alone to live your life hAvE YoU jUsT tRiEd BeInG NoRmAL yOu FrEaK?!"

Going to tell people to just stop being black around police and telling gay people to go back into the closet if they don't want to be harrassed?

“The world is cruel” is a reasonable argument, but misses the point. A political party is actively supporting the cruelty, which is what this post is about.

Dressing or acting in a way that is outside of cultural and social norms is going to get a person more attention, we can’t dictate if they attention will be positive or negative.

Well this is certainly wrong. If it is a social custom to harass women who dress scantily with violent threats, but you pass legislation against harassment, and get the police to actually police those behaviors, you are actually going to influence the social norms.

On a less antagonistic level, don't let society hold you down. Wear what you want to wear, honestly people on average just will not care. People build up stuff like that. Even as a cis het man I've worn stuff from ahego shirts to full pink outfits out and about. No one cares and people will compliment your style usually. And those compliments will mean much more because it speaks to a more genuine version of yourself. Sometimes you just gotta wear some shit you like or makes you giggle. You won't notice how cool people are until you peacock it out. No one's going to compliment or shit talk a Tshirt and jeans but people will definitely be genuinely into what your rocking if it's weird.
