  • President Lyndon B. Johnson once said, "If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."

  • A full one third of the population of the United States cannot name even one branch of government, only 26% can name all three. The meme still works because people are still dumb and you can easily make fun of them over the stuff we knew when we were 12.

  • I do totally understand that, and that must've been jarring and anxiety inducing. What I was trying to convey is that straight folks get those ads too but I don't meant to downplay the emotional disturbance of it all whatsoever, just help ease your mind now.

  • I'm studying to be a counselor and solid listening is half of the battle. Just feeling heard gives a lot of catharsis and if you can understand, analyze, and restate what they're telling you in a way that drives insight, folks can usually solve their own problems. Getting them back in the driver's seat is the goal in the first place, not fixing their problems for them. Helping them connect the dots goes a long way.
