I don't need to explain myself to you, but I will indulge you nonetheless because of the message I'm trying to spread, even though your attitude off the bat really sucked. ๐
I added it because I want to normalize that you can support something or boycott something even though not doing so doesn't affect you directly. You can stand up for something because it's right, not just because you stand to gain something from it.
It's meant to normalize solidarity, which we see very little of in today's humanitarian and political climate.
I hope that satisfies you and maybe think one step further before jumping to criticize so quickly. You did make an edit but it didn't do too much with its demanding tone.
Happy continuation of the holidays to you.
Considering the edit I made after rereading it - I had difficulty determining if you were firing shots or describing yourself. Speed reading and eggnog mix about as well as one would expect. In short - I'm not here to pick a fight where there isn't one.
I'm perfectly happy that my original interpretation was incorrect and will amend my comments as my edit suggested. I understand a lot of marginalized groups are frequently hurt and can lash out generically against the group that hurt them. Its not fun being included in that - which was the intent of my original statement.
Appreciate the reply - cheers and well wishes. ๐
No worries, you owned up to the mistake in a very nice manner. We're cool, you're a good person.
Happy new years, eh!
I'll admit my booze and nutmeg loaded brain tripped over the acronyms and by the time it processed I'd posted and moved on. A moment later: "holdup...."
Apologies for the mistake again - and here's hoping 2026 is kind to us ๐ป
Much love into 2026. Enjoy it, buddy!
