Rebel with to many causes

TheCatWoman

I've always been a bit of a rebel, I don't think it's just about being autistic, but it helps, I was brought up in quite a political family, not party political, but just interested, social injustice infuriates me. I've been involved with so many causes over the years, the womens movement, anti-nukes, animal rights, anti apartied. Now I find that every cause is on social media which I can't do, nor can I go out on the streets protesting like I used too.

I still have the urge to be involved there are so many things worth fighting for, the planet being the biggest one, is anyone else involved in activism?

  • No I don't envole myself in groups or protests with political agendas,  there can focal point for violence and are more often than not infiltrated and hi-jacked by unscrupulous individuals with sinister alterior motives that just discredit the cause and destroy any validity to the initial agenda and by creating a visual extravaganza like violant riots that is good for the TV media and nothing else it supersedes overtakes and belittles diverts attention away from the root cause of the issue and any respect or weight the argument may carry is lost , and we all loose . I thing reading and writing sharing ideas in in differnt forms thst can be absorbed and understood at a pace and in a way that reduces danger distress and is not overbearing and domineering and is open to interpretation and will allow people to think reflect and be inspired is the best way ....butt scratcher and things like that .
