There’s more blunt courage in this young girls little finger, than all the media hypesters, apologists for economic growth, and politicians put together. She’s the example we have needed, of how to speak. Let’s take off the kid gloves.
It can take a lot of time, resources and emotional energy to fight a problem, but it’s so much harder when there are people who don’t know there is a problem, or worse, think that the problem is a politically-motivated fiction.
Too much energy has to be spent on getting people to acknowledge systemic racism, climate change, contagious microbes, etc., before we can get them to stop making the problem worse.
“Of course I understand that the world is very complex and that we need to compromise within the political systems of today. But you can’t really make deals or negotiate with physics.”
