Cats and dogs

Cats and dogs dont vote, work or hold offices, though one day people could advocate for them if they thought that was what cats and dogs really wanted to do. Cats and dogs dont take as many vacations as humans either, you'd almost think they dont have good lives. If you're the kind of person who thinks they should be freed from captivity, why would you own a cat or dog yourself? Animal control and groups that send animals somewhere like a kennel for adoption are not providing freedom for these animals, it's really the opposite.
Cats and dogs don't vote, work, or hold office. The point being that female cat or dog owners are no more the solution to humanity than are male pet owners. If they're human, they're the problem like everyone else.

Wildfires

Thinking that nobody can extinguish wildfires and tell them to fuck themselves is cockiness/arrogance, ignorance, or both.
Wildfires don't burn forever even if it's not extinguished. Its pretentious to think that they will.

Wildfires don't burn forever even if it's not extinguished. Its pretentious to think that they will. Stomping your feet won't do anything to a fire that's still burning, anymore than it will do anything about injustice. The fire has to be extinguished before stomping on the embers does anything.

Boogerville

Washington DC would have been a lot more interesting if it had been designed as Boogerville instead of Washington DC.
The White House would have been the Outhouse in Boogerville, but they had a fancy French designer come in and do it, do you think a French designer really gives a fuck about an American city? Politicans keep saying they're going to change it, but Washington is still not Boogerville, so what has changed?

Colonize

Thinking that all groups of white people (Europeans) colonized everything is ignorance, and it spreads like wildfire. You don't hear about many Russian or Polish colonies outside Europe/Eurasia. You don't hear about many parts of the world colonized by Eastern European groups. The Greeks also don't do much colonizing in recent history, so it's mainly been about 7 or 8 groups of Europeans that did most of the colonizing worldwide (English, Dutch, German, French, Belgian, Spanish, Portugeuse, and Italian). Those 7 or 8 groups have had a lot of the influence in Europe, so people in other parts of the world wouldn't have any more time to differentiate between an Italian and a Bosnian than someone in Europe would have time to differentiate between a Tanzanian and a South African, thus theres a lot of assumptions and ignorance based on what people look like.
Not even every family in every country that did colonize other parts of the world was involved in colonization. There were people/families in England, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, and Belgium that didn't have the time on the money to go out and explore the world, look for gold, or enslave other groups. They were going to work for the same kinds of people that were colonizing other parts of the world.
