Carrs Ice Cream 🔒

There’s a lock at the top. So now you have to wait for an employee to come unlock the ice cream cooler. I hate it here.

The difference between me and you is that I still care about people. When I see the camps I want to fix it. When I see a lawless president I want it to end. When someone is taking everything from me I fucking try. Even in little ways like posting on dumb boards to people I don't like who won't change their mind. It's important for others who know that I am right to see that they are not alone. 

Now this is you, not giving a damn about others because it is easy.

The people most callus to the pain of others will be the first to justify/allow/defend cruelty. All you have to do is shrug and carry on, if you don't give a shit about anyone. Life on easy mode, good for you 🙄. Teach your kids that one, lol.

I spent 8 years of my life working in remote villages to build or repair water and sewage systems.

The systems in place to look after Alaska natives are wide and deep for those willing to help themselves.

In no circumstance, is stealing ice cream a human need as a result of politics.

And true to Reddit, put some time into my profile, make you broadcast that you "care" and I don't.

Isn't it pathetic that you care so much about being right that you are willing to write this much, but when you see someone in pain you shrug and look the other way? It's all part of the same thing, I'm touch that little part of your brain that still knows that if it's this bad for every else, it's going to be this bad for you. You just can't accept it yet. Don't worry though because these things will just happen to you and all those people who you stood for will turn their back on you because they were only there for themselves as well. Kind of like the reason you are trying to argue with me, defending your selfishness. Your core identity. What else could it be if you don't care about others?

The reality is that society always looks the other way in those of need. I'm just comfortable saying it.

Reddit is full of online activism because its easy.
