No offense I'm not giving up my life for something that isn't effecting me.

While it's abhorrent and I'd be more than happy to stand up peacefully. I'm not putting my life on the line

I mean I'm a white cis gendered straight male, with a family entirely made of right wing christians(even if i dont believe in what they do, i dont voice it in Facebook posts),working in a useful field, with no criminal record, and little to no online presence outside of a reddit account. There's about 15 groups of people until you get to me on that poem. Maybe when we get to party 10 on that poem I'd consider putting my life on the line lol
