[marinesimsies]

it doesn’t matter if your server is a “gAmE sErVeR,” when it comes to LITERAL LIVES being lost, it is NOT a political discussion. take several seats, please.

My game won’t load past the title screen

I understand that I’ll never understand. However, I stand. 

This week, this month, has been especially hard, and this is a very important discussion. Don’t shut your eyes to all that’s happening, and don’t stay neutral. 

Here are some handy links on the matter:

This important post on the subject by @savvysweet, and if you’re in the US, check out this post of hers as well on ways to help.

If you are in Canada, this great post by @okruee lists some of the ways you can help.

If you want to know what the situation is like in Brazil, I made a personal post of my own perspective (heads up I’m white) that you can check here.

Last but not least, here is the website of Vidas Negras Importam, the brazilian equivalent of Black Lives Matter. Unfortunately from what I can tell, you can’t change the language of the website (it’s in portuguese), but there’s info there on how to donate to projects in both USA and Brazil, info about brazilian protests, links to petitions and links on how to educate yourself.

To all my black followers and friends, I love you, I support you, I’m sending the biggest hug to all of you. Please take care of yourselves and your mental health during this time. My dms and my discord are always open if you want to chat. Stay safe, stay strong.

Riots

Anything

Except for: independence, voting rights, LGBT rights, and civil rights.

if you don’t support #blacklivesmatter, unfollow me.

if you think that the riots are too much, unfollow me.

if you don’t think that change needs to happen now, unfollow me.

if you refuse to recognize your privileges, unfollow me.

if you’re not a decent human being, unfollow me.

I find it very interesting that whenever a group of white people come together it’s called a protest but the minute black people in this country rightfully speak up on issues together it’s called a riot.

There is a clear double standard that happens. I am so tired of the hypocrisy. I am tired of feeling inadequate. I am so tired of this. I am tired of the blatant racism. I am an American, but I am a BLACK American! I deserve all the rights that any American citizen has. I should not have to fear for my life if I get pulled over or if I am in a police officer’s presence.

Our lives have VALUE! Our lives have a PURPOSE! Our lives are worth LIVING!

I wish America loved Black people as much as you love our culture. You love our hair, You love our clothes, You love our slang, You love our dances, You love our music, but you don’t love US! You would rather jump in our skin but never WALK in our shoes! 

This country was built on Violence and Racism. The very own White House was built by SLAVES. Look at what they did to the Native Americans before we even got here. You stole from us. You abused us. You killed us, and continue to do so. Enough is Enough! We need change and we need it NOW. How many more black men, women, and children have to die before this country gets it together?
