I'm on THIS team! Haha. Nuance is dying. If you're in the middle trying to find right, you're not real. You're not down with the cause. You can't just want everyone to do/be better. That's not enough.

And we're not even doing good/bad or right/wrong. We're doing this or that (aka both can be bad but that gets lost in the mix). And the acting out/claiming 'woke' off and on stuff? The being broken up about everything all the time? It is too much for me. And folks swear up and down that the woke folk mascots are these perfect beings who never do no wrong while the popular folks or the rich ones are the evil empire who can do nothing right enough? It's like religion got thrown away so to fill the void we keep making gods or at least favorite pastors out of regular folks.

I'm embarrassed that we're still making this same mistake. It happened post desegregation. It happened in the 80s with all of the famous TV folks. It happened with late 90s/early 2000s rap music. Remember when Kanye basically received a Hiphop Peace Prize for getting Mos Def and JayZ on the same song.
