Declaration of Humanity

Because Apparently This Is Needed.

I am a Human Being.

I am who I am, now, and in the future.

I love who I love, now, and in the future.

I deserve to love and be loved.

I deserve basic human rights: shelter, food, and healthcare.

I alone know the circumstances and events that led me to today.

Others have no rights to me. I invite others to share in me. Only then is access granted.

Because I believe this about myself, I also believe it about all others.

Everyone deserves to be who they are. Everyone deserves to love who they love. Everyone deserves food, and shelter, and healthcare.

When others deprive people of these rights, they make themselves the enemy. In order to defend the rights of everyone, conflict is necessary. I recommend reading this:

Intolerance is not to be tolerated any longer. I am a Human Being. So is everyone else. If you disagree, you are the enemy. That is your choice. If you make that choice, make sure you understand it.
