Dependa on the differences and how you go about it.
If you keep to yourself and respect others, thats fine.
If you have to protest about it and demand others change for you, no. Thats not ok.

@GuyWithOpinions Don’t most protests come about because people already feel that others are interfering with their rights ? 🤔

@bijouxbroussard yeah. I dont agree with protesting at all.
Protesting to me means: standing around outside complaining and chanting until someone else solves there problem for them.
If someone actually wanted there problem solved they would find a solution to it.

@GuyWithOpinions That’s the definition of privilege there, that certainty of being listened to by those in power. 🤔
I’m used to people who see the world as you do. I just wish things were actually that cut and dried for everyone. 🙁

@bijouxbroussard its not privilege its understanding. You need to appeal to the people your talking to. In a democracy atleast, if you have a problem with something at a government level you have to appeal to a politician. Or someone among thier ranks.
To be recognized by them you have to have a credential they acknowledge. Take a political science course or something so they will atleast talk to you. Get a petition signed by like minded people to show you have power behind your statments. That way you might get a hearing before a council of them. Then have a well written speech typed out and wear formal clothing like they do to prove you have a point made with intellect.
Standing in traffic with a flag just pisses people off and does nothing to change the issue.

@GuyWithOpinions It is privilege, because unfortunately it is still fact that some people are listened to and others are not, even now.
And while some things had improved, we appear to be going backwards—starting with the fact that kids are not being taught about the history of how constructive protest has long been a legal tool used to affect change in our country.
