You're screaming "fuck off, I don't deserve any of this because those thefts were carried out before I was 18", but you're screaming that sitting on the stolen furniture in a stolen house. The crimes mentioned predating your eighteenth birthday doesn't mean shit when you're still benefiting from the results of those crimes.
If someone gets abducted and put in a stolen house with stolen furniture, are they to blame?
Like, I get it, we enjoy the privileges and share the responsibility to change shit. But responsibility and blame are two different things. Guilt is not what's driving change.
Everyone is benefiting and being hurt by decisions made in the past or decisions that they cannot control. These are meaningless statements. They don't cause action, they don't make people feel like they should do something. They just annoy people. The statements are ignorant. You have no idea who I am, what I do, how I live, etc.
So you can also respectfully fuck off as well.
