What hypocrisy! What a bunch of losers we are! Okay, be a loser – live as a loser – crawl through the several decades of your life as a loser – but don’t you dare to boast about being human. Because if you don’t have the guts and conscience to act against discrimination, segregation, and bigotry, then you don’t deserve the title of human. Losers don’t make humans, just like bigots and barbarians ain’t no human. If we are to look at the mirror and say out loud – yes, that’s me, a human – then we must, not should, but must, be accountable for not just our individual reality, but for our social reality as well.”

Here I am by no means insinuating that all men should see all women as sisters, rather I am pointing out that all civilized men should at the very least have the decency to see women as persons, and not as objects of sexual gratification or as potential mating partners, because only then we shall succeed as a conscientious species to give a safe and non-predatory environment to our children.”

And this fight is far too grand to be fought with plain primitive violence and strength of the muscle. It is a battle within the mind which can only be fought and won by the strength and purity of the mind.”
