we seriously need to bring back the concept of “despite its flaws i still enjoy it” instead of ‘cancelling’ every fuckin thing in sight 

[zoewashburne]

#we need to trust that just because someone loves a thing it doesn’t mean they don’t know it’s flawed

[cosmiagramma]

We also need to stop insisting that everyone enjoying flawed things must put 25 cents in the Problematic Jar and recite all its failings from memory.

[virtualcarrot]

If I just may add: we really need to stop pretending that “I’m a Good person, ergo the thing I like is PERFECT and if you criticize it you’re an ENEMY”. You can enjoy stuff AND keep your sense of critical thinking.

El negro Matapacos (black cop killer)  was a symbol of fight and hope in the social protests we had last year. He was a stray who marched with the people and defended them from authorities. 

He is Chile’s most beloved protest dog.

   Here are some murals honoring him from different cities across the country

they even made a statue

Is he the same guy who wore that “I CAN breathe” shirt and ordered one for all his officers? Or was that a different NYC cop?

[property-is-theft-deactivated20]

The funniest part of the whole speech is where he claims that the NYPD doesn’t engage in the kind of behavior the cops in Minneapolis do, which is laughably false. 

[inkskinned]

your first and most pressing concern should be for the safety of black people. it should be for justice. it should be in making this not just a moment but a reshaping of cultural bias.

this is not a fun little game for you to trot around flipping off cops and making light of a situation you were never effected by. it is not your chance to have a little bit of adventure in the middle of a quarantine. i am speaking as an author and i am telling you to stop fucking making this about katniss or harry potter or whatever - you can be shaped by media, sure, but this is not and has never been about you roleplaying your favorite action heroes. this is not another “disaster of 2020″. this is not a quirky instagram post, it’s not a chance for you to meet up with your friends, it’s not a tactic to get your tiktok trending.

this is about racial injustice. this is about the entire system that is built on that injustice and grows fat on that injustice. don’t get distracted. the police force is not the only systemically racist organization.

black lives matter. and we do not stop until every organization recognizes that and actually acts on it.

This was so fucking adorable I wanted to cry.
