Good news, I am still living my most unbothered life. I have decided to take it to the next level and redefine my social media experience.
In the past, I’ve always welcomed differences of opinion on my timelines. I’ve heavily rolled my eyes at the 45 supporters and the ultra bigot crowd but I’ve let them take up space on my timeline. Even heavily engaged in a little back and forth on the important issues. That shit is canceled.
It’s social media. The discussions I have on there, they really aren’t changing lives. The kids from my hometown who haven’t ever done anything, the family friends who swim in the white privilege pool only - I don’t need them.
Life is too short. I don’t need to play nice with people who quite frankly, are a waste of time.
If you choose hateful, ignorant views in 2020, I’m over you. You’re a human troll, an internet troll, and most often, you aren’t going to change.
Truly, accepting a difference of opinion on things like human rights and social justice, that’s not a thing. That’s not something I owe anyone. There’s right and there’s wrong and there is no in between on those things.
I’m active in the real world. I’m donating my monies, my time, and I’m dedicating myself to learning the facts. I value being a productive and active member of society — for all the good things. I don’t feel comfortable resting in my privilege and I am not ok being quiet in times of injustice.
I honestly don’t even care anymore about changing the minds of a lot of folks that are too far gone. There are enough people out there willing to learn, grow, and fight for what’s right. Susan from my hometown who watches Fox News, live in your bubble girl, we are done with you. You sell that MLM and call it a boss babe career, and you call yourself a Christian but say nothing when babies are ripped from their families and put in cages. You’re livin girl, what a life.
I am not here for the draining unnecessary suck that is conservative social media. The misinformed, the #alllivesmatter, the idiots who think 45 has made our economy “boom” - get it off my feeds. If I haven’t seen you in 10 years, if we weren’t friends in real life and you’re out here spreading that nonsense, I am unsubscribing from you.
I’m focused, my sparkles are aligned, I’m rolling into 2020 full speed ahead curating a social media feed filled with puppies and empathy. You want to be part of it? Be a better human being. Otherwise, no vain selfies for you people, you will just have to find a way to survive without me. Which sounds impossible because I am a GD UNICORN.
