Minorities - needs hugs
Disabled people - needs hugs
LGBTQ+ people - needs hugs
Conservatives - does not need hugs
Wealth exceeding $500,000,000 - does not need hugs
MAGA - does not need hugs
I wholeheartedly agree all of the people listed in the thread as “needs hugs”, but, hear me out, maybe if all the MAGA and conservatives and hateful people had gotten more hugs in their childhood, then they wouldn’t be such giant assholes now.
John 13:34. If Jesus really is the holy prophet for the West, and his last commandment before being betrayed is “Love everyone,” then that seems pretty important to Christ’s message.
I believe in that sentiment strongly. If they believe that sentiment, then we can exchange hugs. It has to start from that place, or they are lost.
not fan of the Jesus fandom (most of them at least) but Jesus was a pretty epic character when you actually read that book about him. indeed responding to hate and violence with kindness instead of retribution is important in stopping the cycle of violence, though i must note - he did die in that story, and none of us are currently divine children walking the earth knowing what comes after, sometimes stopping the cycle is impossible if you want to survive.
i will always accept with an open heart the people who were once bigots and changed, or those who are having doubts about their bigoted beliefs - both mean they’ve learnt and grown, and their past mistakes shouldn’t define their whole life
Honestly, maybe if Conservatives were willing to accept hugs they wouldn’t be so damn angry all the time.
I’m not a minority, LGBTQ+, or disabled but I’m also not MAGA, a conservative, and have less than 0.002% of the wealth listed. Can I be put on the hug? I’m willing to give the in return at a rate of 1 to 1.
I need hugs.
I need hugs, but please don’t touch me. Or pantomime at me.
