The Journal of Emily G Myers "bigots!"
12/22/2003 05:53 p.m.
I'm so bored of people who say, "I hate bigots." Doesn't that bore you? And then they say, "I hate religion, meat, patriots, macho men, people who don't have the same ideas as me, etc." Are these people not the dumbest in the entire world? I'm not speaking of any one person... but sometimes it only takes one person to isolate a type of person.
I think it's high time we realized that we are NOT all the same. We are different. And without our differences this world would be a ridiculously boring place to live. I understand you have your likes and dislikes. I'm not such a fan of "macho men" but am certainly not going to say that I'm not bigoted. Everyone has their prejudices. EVEN YOU. Wow. Yes, you. And me too!
Certainly, if I'm saying this after what I've had to deal with over the past year... my whole life, really... then you know there has to be something wrong. I mean, my dad disapproves because I'm white and I'm dating a black guy. I know prejudice, ok? But you can't say, "I hate blacks and whites and BIGOTS!" It makes no sense. And as fond as I am of all things nonsensical, I am NOT fond of that.
And I just went on a rant. There you go. I am currently Stimulated
