basing activism or w/e on the idea of “these people are just like you/someone you know so you should tolerate them” is one of the weakest but most prevalent ideas cuz it relies on erasing differences instead of acknowledging them and working on eliminating the prejudices that form around those differences. like that way of thinking is why “we all bleed red” without realizing that some of us bleed more is like…a thing.
