 oh,FFS

I’m not saying “be nicer to your oppressors”, I’m not saying “stop fighting”, I’m saying “make sure the fight isn’t the only thing you have”.

And I’m saying that as someone who is fighting an absolutely desperate battle

being destroyed by this *is* a major spiritual danger…

Also the other thing?

If the fight is the only thing you have, you’ll never end the oppression you fight against.

Because if it’s all you have, you’ll want to keep the fight. And to keep the fight you need the oppression. So you sabotage your own attempts to stop the oppression. And that gets ugly.
