i’m a strong believer in the idea that we need to extend our compassion not just to the people easiest to sympathize with but with the lowest, strangest, most unnerving people in our society. compassion is pointless if its not focused on giving connection and support and respect and humanity to the people who are denied all of those things the most. its pointless if its based in conditionality and power and a sense of superiority over others, and not in seeing others suffering as the same as you, and wanting to lift them up so you can stand as equals.
