Reminder to white dude's like myself: Sometimes, shut the fuck up.

Reminder to white dude's like myself: Sometimes, shut the fuck up.

Sometimes, and as you can:
-- Donate. You maybe make 21 cents more on the dollar.
-- Cheer for others. They get shouted down more easily than you.
-- Remember: What's important is people, not victory points. Definitely not your victory points.
-- Listen first to understand.

If you have developed an ability to argue, debate, hold a position, and to be persuasive, use it for good measure: Against assholes, on the side of justice.

Don't:
-- Hold money ransom for particular actions. That's patriarchy bullshit.
-- Take up more than your share of spotlight on someone else's space.
-- Use your abilities against less privilege persons in an attempt to win points.
-- Listen only to respond.

There are dragons (and nazis) out there. Don't be one of them.
