Turn off computer, news, social media. Get outside the biggest cities. Most ppl r actually just fine. All races, types living/working together with surprisingly little strife. There are people who want us to live in the artificial reality they create/control. Don't fall for it. https://twitter.com/johnaconner/status/1033867240670679041 …

Did it occur to you, that as families are helplessly watching their loved ones being murdered, harassed, threatened & physically attacked at the hands of violent racist thugs that your [limited] world view speaks more to your ignorance & bubble-like existence than anything else?
-
Did it occur to you that you are misinterpreting the tweet and that you've never met me? ;)
-
To the contrary. Your tweet was crystal clear - hence the significant pushback you've been receiving. As for having met you...well, we'll venture to say its better that we have not. You're quite dangerous....

If you're afraid of me, I think I'm beginning too see the problem. And you're right, the tweet was clear. And the "pushback" on this particular thread, proved the point of the tweet. I will say most people have been fairly civil though! The racial comments were a minority.
-
Fearful? Not in the least. Just aware... And your tweet proves nothing except that you're disconnected from reality, and moreover, you're quite fine with that fact! And we say this with the utmost civility;)

Sharyl, you just posed a world view that specifically denied that the problems people are speaking about weren't real. "Don't fall for it" you said. Then those who weigh in frrom their own experience, you argue. Can you see why people are objecting to your post?

Well said, Denise.

Thank you

Yes, it does! I know that my worldview is different from many, and that it is informed (and insultated) by privilege. So if at first it seems like everything is working fine, before declaring that the case, I seek out the voices of those who can’t be vocal about their struggles.

Does it ever occur to *you* that your worldview and perspective is a completely different reality from what other people are living, every day? Holy hell, this is some tone deaf, head in the sand privilege.

"most people are fine" is as close as you can get to saying there are no problems

Lmao The fact that you can “choose” how you see the world is privileged in itself. You can’t interpret the world however you see fit. The only world view IS the real world. And this rose colored perception your trying to portray by saying everyone is fine IS the issue in itself
