There are two kinds of evil people in the world... those who do evil stuff, and those who see evil stuff being done and don't do anything about it.-Tina Fey
In my opinion, a selfish “not in my backyard” attitude is part of the reason why our society is so jacked up and social injustice continues to exist. When we advocate for someone else, we advocate for yourself because it could easily be you that’s getting the short end of the stick. Furthermore, if you ever do hit an obstacle, you’re going to wish someone gave a darn to stand up for or help you. Anytime we turn a blind-eye to injustice or inequality, we are potentially responsible for human suffering. It is our problem.
We are all humans. What goes around comes around. We need to realize and embrace the power of the energy we put out (or don’t put out) into the world. It’s the ripple effect at its best.
