Activism in Vain.
Well well. The way the petition was going all out for signatures was repulsive. Someone remarked "if you are gay and you don't repeal it, you are endorsing our second-class citizenship."
My answer to someone. "Until you realise you are severely discriminated, you won't know what second-class feels like. Actually, I don't feel second class at all even being gay. Who is oppressing you day and night? "
Until you experience racial discrimination, until you experience inequality in your ability to make money, buy a house, are you repressed. Until you get called names overtly day and night, are you repressed.
then, the other whinnies complain...
"Oh, we want rights for my gay-partner."
If you want to pass on your wealth to your loved ones, you can always make your partner the beneficiary in other alternate ways lor. Did you say you have first class honours?
"Oh, so we can have gay marriage."
Paper certificates don't mean anything, if it at all helps you be together, how sad is your relationship. There are more break-ups than relationships I know that exist. so really, are you kidding yourself?
...
The time is not now, and pushing your luck too far, becomes noise. If you studied advertising and marketing, you'd know. If a certain govt keeps advertising how great they are (but isnt), we all get sick of it, and we resent them. So, if you keep arguing about repeals day and night, people will get sick of the persistent push for it. Like i said, positive influence will get you further. And if you claim to be an activist, then you have executed the Message poorly. Go and read your marketing case studies about PR and campaigns again. And needless to say, petitioning under duress is absolutely unethical.
And if you don't want aunties to be on your flight serving you wine, you won't want aunties to ask you to sign petition. It's the attitude and the perception that needs correcting really.
i blog with no intention to offend but to put things as they are. Your criticisms and brickbats are welcomed. But as you would expect, opinions are opinions, don't expect me to agree with you either.
