I understand
what’s going on.
I don’t need
to change my Facebook profile to demonstrate my acceptance or acknowledgement
of it.
This is for
the little bitch that got on my Facebook chat the other night and started in
about how I didn’t change my profile picture to the equal sign in
celebration/support of gay rights. People
are the reason I usually have chat turned off, but I wanted to talk to a
friend so thanks for ruining that. Clearly you’re right: my not changing my
stupid picture means that I hate gay people and that I am absolutely dedicated
to the creation of inequality in our world. Or as you so kindly put it “ur mean to gays and you dont care how they
feel.”
I would have
unfriended you, in fact, I’m not quite sure why we’re friends in the first
place (I neither recognize your name nor your face) except I’m lazy and I
wanted to give you a blog first.
Facebook is a wonderful tool for social
outreach. Starting a page or writing a status can easily reach hundreds to
hundreds of thousands of people. That’s nice, very nice. But it’s still
Facebook. That is all it is and all it ever will be. And to me, Facebook is
pretty low on my list of priorities. I don’t wake up every morning and think “oh,
what on Facebook today will affect my life today?”
I’m very
excited about what is happening in the Supreme Court right now. I’m very excited that we are finally
headed towards and equal world. I’m excited for the day that my cousin will
be able to marry his life partner officially, in any state and with a real
wedding.
I like
Facebook, I really do. I can keep in touch with my family, I spam people with
my blogs, I can write sappy notes to my boyfriend and look at all the silly
pictures my friends post. But people like you, miss I care more about a picture
than the real world, are seriously
making me consider giving it up entirely.
But then you
would win, and bitches don’t win.
Challenge to
my Readers:
It’s times
like these that I beg people to remember that it’s Facebook. Just a social
networking site bent on wasting as much of your productivity as it possibly
can. No matter what the bitches say, no matter how mean people are, just ignore
them. They’re bitches. Don’t sweat the bitches.
