One time it wasn't a bigot, but an old guy taking creepshots of college girls on the light rail

Edit: If you're going to argue against my meme, then why don't you tell me what you expect me to do when I see someone hurling epithets and slurs against brown people or trans people, or homophobes calling me a "faggot" and spitting at me? Just sit there on my hands like a useless log?

And moreover, if you've come here from other instances for the sole purpose of calling me names, I'm going to report that shit and message your instance admins. There is NOTHING about my post or comments that is attacking or insulting anyone, unless you're a creep or a bigot.

I'm not going to sit idly by while others cause harm.

Remember to always stand up for what's right. Ignore the ignorant people who tell you not to. They're part of the problem.

This is an essential part of mutual aid

I get where you're coming from and I want to be on your side, but this can get real tricky depending on the... I guess belief systems that make up the majority of the people on the bus.

I see where your hearts at, and I like it, but even though a lot of them are being assholes about it, some of the people in the thread make a good point. How we feel about 'group pressure' depends a lot on which group is most numerous at the time.
