I see stories of hot women and see people calling some of them ugly. One of my daughters has someone on musically calling her ugly. My youngest has had other kids in class call her ugly or tell her that I am. When the girls tell me this, all I keep saying is 'everyone is ugly to someone and beautiful to another'. The same as 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder'. People love to push their thoughts on others and too many take this to heart. That's why the ones pushing their view do this. They know it will get someone going, or upset. This goes along with being offended.
There have always been people that are offended by everything and there have always been people that try to push their offense on others. This is nothing new. Many people just don't like to leave others in peace. Trying to get this through my children's minds and help them learn to let it go is not easy. I guess even I have done this in some ways.
We have the statues that are being torn down here. I don't like some of it but it reminds me of what ISIL is doing to the history across the sea from us here.
People aren't able to speak their minds, even though our constitution in the US says they can. In all honesty, the Constitution here doesn't differentiate between it being hateful or not that I remember.
News has always been at least partly biased, but now it's being called fake news. Think of how boring it would be to read if it only stated facts without the biased parts. They wouldn't sell any of it most likely. Emotion is what taints things but also what sells it.
I feel much of this is only an issue now because of how widespread people's thoughts are. My blog is an example. I post what I feel and think, some people read it, some of them care and some of them don't. Others just don't read it. Which is fine with me. I put this out there so people can know they are not alone in their thoughts or the things going on around them. I know I'm not the only one that goes through the things I do.
I'm in a DBT group. I'll get the words of the acronym up eventually. The other people in it have been through more than me as far as I can see but each of us deals with what we have differently. Each of us cares about events at a different level. Many only really care about what they can see directly affecting themselves.
These are my thoughts anyway. You can agree or not but they are being said. I lost my train of thought here so will end it here.
