Going after racists, sexists, fascists, and aiming to bring those who try to restrict freedom to justice. These current events and social issues that are relevant today were being fought before people like Greta Thunberg, Malala, David Hogg, and AOC were even born.

The Mentality Prison
Well just in case you don’t know what mentality is then just understand that it is the way you think, and it can be different from one person to another but generally you can classify persons in different groups. You have the pessimists who always think negatively, the optimists who always think positively the narcissist and many other groups. In society, we tend to see different groups emerge based on status, you have the hardworking people who believe that everything is possible and you have the unlucky persons who feel like things are never going to work out at all. You can really see all the diversity in the way we as humans think on a daily basis, I’m not sure if we are predisposed to think in a certain way or if its the experiences we go through which shape our thinking but experiments have shown that even when you put two persons under the same conditions, their way of thinking could be totally opposite. This is to say that you can’t really mold a person’s mentality into what you want, all you can do is expose them to the right stimuli and hope for the best.
