Cause you're a human being with empathy? Never let yourself think it's 'weird' to find this sort of thing horrifying. Or as someone much more eloquent said: "If you tremble with indignation at every injustice then you are a comrade of mine."
Ahh, Che.
Yes, you're right. It is fucked. I've just been told off by my friends sometimes like "yeah dude that's life" or other shit like that so I'm always hesitant to call it like it is
“yeah dude that’s life”
I hate that so much. No it's not life. You're not living that way, I'm not living that way and neither of us would accept if we were suddenly living that way. I understand, because it's a sort of learned helpness in a way I guess, but it still makes my blood boil because it is direct hostility towards those people.
I like to imagine everyone going 'okay!' making them switch all their belongings with those of the homeless person and see how 'normal' they think it is then.
Your friends are liberals I presume? I hear the same nonsense from my family. There is no 'that's just life' - no innate, immutable state to which human experience is perpetually bound. These supposed facts of reality are very much an intentional state of affairs, and one that can be changed and, insha'allah, will be.
