(TRIGGER WARNING! TRIGGER WARNINGS EVERYWHERE!)

Since when did we become a society that has to put "trigger" warnings on literally everything? Since when did we, as America, become a whiny, blubbering, baby-like, society? This is just ridiculous. I have such a problem with this term.

First off, I was raised to work hard to get what I want in life no matter how hard it may seem to obtain and whining about it will never help. Need money? Get a job. It doesn't matter where because it's a starter job to help pay for college and other miscellaneous things. No, my family is not rich by any means. Although we have a nice house, cars, etc., my parents worked their butts off so they could live better and for the future. Even if you are making minimum wage at $7.25/hr, you can work multiple jobs. Those $7.25 jobs are NOT meant for career jobs, they are meant to help you start out and eventually get a degree and a much higher paying job.

Yeah, I don't believe in the "$15/hr minimum wage" crap. What you are doing at a minimum wage job is minimum work.

Hate me for it, I don't care but, whining and complaining about it isn't going to help you.

Also, I always get annoyed with those people who feel offended by literally EVERYTHING. I refuse to apologize to you because we have different views on various issues. Being rude to me and shaming me will not help your point. I was raised to respect others no matter who they are or what their political views are, you should learn how to do it. Agree to disagree and move on.

Coexistence. Sounds great, right? Yeah it does but, there's a catch. YOU'RE A RACIST BIGOT IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH US. Let's go over the definition of coexistence according to the handy dandy dictionary that people so desperately need to use more often: the state or condition of living in harmony despite different ideologies or interests (Oxford Dictionary). So, living in harmony despite different ideologies or interests seems fairly simple just respect everyone. Well, almost.

As a society, we have focused so much attention on this idea of coexistence and accepting everyone that we have lost touch with reality and lost focus on more important issues, like the economy or the fate of our country. This whole "accept me for who I am" stuff has gone out of control like herpes. Putting labels on ourselves like, "I'm a bisexual, biracial, feminist, Green Party, atheist" is just dumb. Slapping labels on ourselves to make us feel special, unique, or different is idiotic. We all know, everyone is different in their own way and you don't need to cram it down our throats and basically waterboard us with it; it's obnoxious. This has lead us to the "trigger warnings".

We have allowed this coexistence snowball to go out of control that we have to have trigger warnings because we fear someone may get offended. No matter what, someone will disagree with what we say or get offended in someway. If they can't understand it's your opinion and can't respect that, oh well. Life may move on, but some people never will.

I hope and pray, that someday America will realize how ridiculous this is and change for the better.
