they say



be careful, they say.

you don't want to make them uncomfortable. 
don't be vulgar or angry, or even too passionate.
differences scare people, so maybe blend in. 
maybe focus on only one cause. 
joining or blending everything confuses people. 
you can't give all of your attention to everything. 
what does intersectional even mean, anyway? 
you have it great, you should be more grateful. 
we all matter.
you should be angry about genital mutilation. 
protesting never helped anyone. 
stop offending people.
i can't fight for everyone that's down. 
i have a family to worry about and feed. 



yes, i heard you.
