Remember when you were ignorant and didn’t really know shit about feminism, racism, sexism, transgender issues, gay issues, etc? Remember all the offensive and inaccurate shit you used to say without even knowing you were being offensive? Remember the times you weren’t attacked for being ignorant but instead someone kindly educated you on these matters?

Yea, pass that on.

(this is good to remember because some people honestly just don’t know/understand certain things, and it is also important to remember some people do know but they just don’t care. it is important to be kind, but when somebody is being cruel on purpose how kind you are won’t matter. it depends on the person and what they are talking about; some people learn and some people are just never going to be decent)
