It has been my routine to check the trending list on twitter everyday.
I was deeply saddened and extremely mad when I read the news about Jacob Clarke who was shot 7 times on his back by white police officers.
First one was George Floyd who was pinned down on the neck to death by a white police officer and now this.
2 days apart when a young white man freely walk out the street with his long gun after killing 2 people during the protest for Jacob Clarke's death.
You see how race influences people's responses to certain circumstances.
This has to stop for crying out loud. We are all humans here regardless of what color a person has.
There should be equality in this world. What's making me furious is that people are so confident to tweet and raise their voices "Black lives matter"on protests but are actually the first ones who insult colored people. The hypocrisy.
I just want to vent out my emotions because it's so heartbreaking. Sometimes, Asians are treated like trash in US particularly and nobody deserves to be treated like that.
Why don't we respect each other?
Do not let us pretend only white people discriminate and are the ones who are the cause of racism. So are Asians, black people, and other races! Strangely enough, no one dares to say that. All life matters not only black lives.
Many races fight each other. Chinese do not like Taiwanese, Americans make jokes about Canadians, black people look down on each other too (not all Africans feel they are equal).
I know all about discrimination, racism and it's an illusion it will ever stop. East Europe envies if not hates West Europe and finds it normal to demand, left hates right, men hate women, the high class looks down on the lower class and the lower class does the same.
We believe what we like to believe and what we are reached to believe. Own opinion is not allowed. We learn to generalize and judge by the culture and status we have. None of us is able to look at it subjective, without tunnel vision. Next to this all it's in our DNA to only like what is like us, benefits us, what feels safe.
Scolding, judging others different like ourselves, fighting them, scolding at them, raping them is always wrong no matter the color of the skin the one has who does it. βΉ
