Stupid Human tricks, December Edition

A recent headline in a newsletter I received.

Drag storytimes are “a simple, positive way to teach acceptance” yet hate groups are targeting them (CBC)
— Booknet News, Booknet Canada

I get why it was phrased that way but I think it would be much more effective (and activating) to change “yet” to “so.”

Drag storytimes are “a simple, positive way to teach acceptance” so hate groups are targeting them.

You can’t effect change until you recognize the resistance to change. FWIW, I think these kind of events are exactly what we as a society should be promoting. Hit ’em where it scares them the most and we’ll all be amazed what we can slip in behind them.

As always, just my 2 cents.
