This isn't me pointing a finger at everyone else as though I'm not guilty. I'm not a good guy. I am absolutely guilty too.

We see abuse, and we say or do nothing. We don't call it out when we see it. We don't hold our friends and neighbors accountable. We say things like "why did they stay in that place" as though the victim should have known there were safe spaces when surrounded by inaction.

But, somehow, we get to label ourselves good guys. Or we pressure those near us into calling us the good guy to make us feel better. But it's almost always bullshit, any we refuse to deal with it when reality shows up.

We should all do a better job addressing the shit we've done in the past, and figure out how to talk to people near us when they do something they shouldn't. It doesn't have to be a physical confrontation most of the time, just need to stand for the things we say we believe in.
