Why would you post this on a thread that you KNOW is for uplifting news only? I clicked for something to read to give me some hope and your damn comment was the first one I saw. Truly- what possesses you to post “not trying to be all negative on the uplifting thread, buuuuut.... we are all doomed!”

I was wondering the same thing.

Perhaps he/she was just trying to politely remind all of you what it feels like to be black?

The hopelessness. The constant fear

omg. I did not realize that the post was a symbolism, and contained a deeper coded message. You are right.

IDK, I didn't post it and was only guessing that there may have been a deeper message. Perhaps there wasn't. I really don't know

Normally I'd agree!
But in these times... It's important to really bring awareness to things we find difficult to think about.
Even in "uplifting" moments, we need to take a step back and understand what others are going through.

Peaceful protests have been requested, and I can't think of a more gentle and peaceful way to protest a cause than by kindly reminding everyone what our fellow brothers go though EVERY DAY!

Yes- hopelessness and constant fear. Perfect response for a thread asking specifically for something uplifting.

So lame.

And everyone who is predicting the second wave also predicted things would be much much worse than they have been.

This.

If anyone has anything uplifting to share I'd really appreciate it.

Such painful times. I don't think my heart can break into any more pieces, it is already shattered.

There is such feelings of hopelessness in NYC

OH dear.

Yes I live in NYC.
Rough times for us. First we were the virus epicenter, now the riots and looting and a possible uptick in covid.

I just want to cry.

I feel so bad for everyone and the hurt they're feeling
