why are non-millennials so personally offended by everything? like if i’m still wearing my jacket indoors, it’s because i’m cold, not because i disrespect your home/your classroom !! if somebody has got your order wrong, it’s because they’re very busy and simply made a mistake, not because they’re trying to jeopardise your meal !! if somebodies phone rings during a meeting/lecture, it’s because they accidentally forgot to put it on silent, not because they want to disrupt your speech !! just calm down, sharon, not everything is about you

my personal favorite is when you yawn and they’re like “am I boring you?”

its funny how you say non-millennials as if millennials aren’t offended bei every little tiny thing that could possibly happen
being offended by wearing a coat inside is very different to being offended by violent racism but sure enjoy your tea
the signs as art
aries: the art in anger. landing a solid punch on the jaw. the pounding of your heart against your chest. the color red.
taurus: the art in the earth. the smell of wet dirt. the feeling of grass between your toes. heavy boulders stacked like stone towers.
gemini: the art in the air. the sound of laughter carrying in the wind. the feeling of a warm breeze blowing through your hair. a deadly sharp frost.
cancer: the art in the sea. the salty breeze that blows through your hair. the fear of something swimming past your feet. being where all life began.
leo: the art in the wild. listening for strange noises coming from the forest. the smell of a wildfire in the cold. a lion’s roar as he escapes the clutches of a hunter.
virgo: the art in the trees. the smell of the pines in the fall. the perfect imperfection of the twisted branches and straight trunks. jumping in piles of colorful leaves.
libra: the art in falling in love. the feeling of deep longing in your chest. staying up late, wishing that they were in bed beside you. lighting lavender candles because the smell reminds you of them.
scorpio: the art in water. the blackness of a lake at night. the skipping of smooth stones on the surface. not knowing what lies beneath the waves.
sagittarius: the art in fire. seeing mountainous plumes of smoke on the horizon. a campfire illuminating secretive faces. knowing that there’s no escape from the flames.
capricorn: the art in the dark. listening for strange sounds in the dead of night. seeing faces in the trees at midnight. clutching a flashlight with white knuckles.
aquarius: the art in laughter. giggling after a first kiss. laughing through the pain, no matter how deep the wound. bending over, wheezing, silenced by joy.
pisces: the art in emotion. elation when your favorite band walks onstage. knowing your love is unrequited. laughing even though you feel like crying.
Christianity and conservatism are not compatible ideologies. Conservatives, socially, are against refugees, against equality, and fiscally are against social programs and financial aid to those in need.
Jesus demanded they help refugees, demanded equality, and demanded aid to the poor.
To be conservative means to not be Christian, and to claim you are both is to be a hypocrite.
Something Jesus also condemned.
I don’t think you know much about either ideology
Sincerely, a conservative Christian
I’ve read the bible six times, I know what it says.
I’m also a polisci student, and pay attention to what conservatives do. In fact I’ve studied conservatism, in addition to the other political ideologies that exist in our world.
Jesus said:
When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. (Leviticus 19:33-34)
When you reap the harvest of your land, do not reap to the very
edges of your field or gather the gleanings of your harvest. Do not go
over your vineyard a second time or pick up the grapes that have fallen.
Leave them for the poor and the foreigner. (Leviticus 19:9-10)
He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the
foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing. And you are
to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in
Egypt. (Deuteronomy 10:18-19)
For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and
you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I
needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I
was in prison and you came to visit me. (Matthew 25:25-36)
Just to quote a very, very few.
Conservatives repeatedly repeal and cut back programs that feed the poor ,including poor children, cut back education, and cut back healthcare, all things vital to the poor. Conservatives repeatedly want no refugees, want no immigrants (travelers), including children. In fact, many conservatives want to throw the existing immagrants (travelers) out of the country (and need I remind you, Jesus was not a “legal” immagrant, so to claim ‘legal’ and ‘illegal’ immigrants are any different is still to ignore what the bible has commanded of you.
I know exactly what each ideology is about. You are a hypocrite, and not a Christian. You only call yourself one while flaunting what was commanded of you.
in the field of religious studies, we often call jesus one of the first radical leftists. he was a social anarchist with communist leanings, and that’s why his draw was such a threat to the imperial system—because he was calling for the dismantling of oppressive power structures. the conservative romans were the ones who killed jesus, and conservatives after are the ones continuing to kill his message thousands of years after his death.
Don’t forget he fought against slut-shaming, embraced alcoholics and the homeless, and straight up said you can’t get into heaven if you die rich.
When I say conservative Christians would deport Jesus if they actually saw him or blacklist him if they heard him…this is why. And it’s funny because those fools are the Pharisees and can’t even see that.
The greatest commandment of Christianity is to love your neighbor like yourself and that’s not what conservatives do.
