Upon hearing a conversation while riding the max, I was forced to think about the way people think about other people thinking… Specifically, this coversation was anti-gay and everyone involved seemed to agree that.. “it just ain’t right” —
Now I instantly wanted to interject “the worlds problems all stem from people thinking what’s right for themselves is right for everyone!”, but I held back and let them continue to tell stories to eachother about encounters with “faggots” – all the usual generalities.
I couldn’t stop thinking about how there are still a lot of people out there that really think that their concept of right/wrong extends well beyond the confinements of their own mind. Perhaps what I should’ve said was “you’re all wrong!”
