So, I might
be reading this wrong, I’ve been known to do that time to time. But, I read this on TMZ:
“David
Hogg's ready for another major rally -- getting students nationwide to sign
up for his political activism club.”
Now, I think
the kids have a very steep uphill battle to get change done, but they can do it
to some extent.
However,
reading this first line of this article gives me the impression that, TMZ at
least, thinks the movement’s just a kid fancy with their use of the word “club.” That’s the connotation I get too, a school
club, just a bunch of friends getting together, when it’s much, much more to them as well as so many others around the world.
I hope to
God the media’s not starting to trivialize these kids’ efforts by saying their
movement’s merely a group of kids undertaking a school project that just
happened to go viral. It’d be just another
example of the media shitting on a tragedy that's a newsworthy cause and busting it down to
just another flavor of the month side note whenever David or any of the other
kids announce whatever.
What you
guys think?
Be good to
each other.
