one of the sadest things ive heard lately tbh

i reached out to an old friend of mine whose mexican-american to catch up but also to tell him man i dont remember if you have any family left in armenia i just wanted to say hope theyre safe and im sorry for everything thats happening

.... it has been weeks since it escalated. he thanked me and said it meant a lot bc im the first and only person to say anything to him abt it :((((

#despite how frequently he talks abt being half aremanian and what it means to him and the genocide and everything #. one of the stupidest things i also remember him complaining about is american idiots hearing he wasnt #just mexican but armenian and thinking that somehow made him american white and he had like less #right to talk about opression and issues and shit #like godddd 💀💀💀💀 you god forsaken idiots who think the whole world falls into your american discourses #are armenians privileged now when barely anything is being done and its barely talked about huh?#you think 'white' is what matters in this generations long conflict u bafoons #cant comprehend that the ppl u consider white bc theyre orthodox have been horribly opressed and #genocided for so long and have such a rough history because of the ppl u dont consider white bc theyre turks and muslims 💀💀#so you really feel comfortable instantly dismissing the horrors suffered by armenia. because your american pea brains cant #wrap ur mind arounf this?#-_- my frustration during so many convos we had abt so many things is coming back
