19. Egalitarianism Is A Big Word For You (1:18)
Why do you say
egalitarian
in one breath
and dismiss the oppression
of women, people of color,
and gays with the next?
Wanting to look and feel good
Embracing shallow compassion
Token efforts to be involved
enough to feel like a saint
and maintain your right to be "right"
Helping 'those' people in 'that' country
No ownership of the oppressive systems
That you're part of daily
Using religion and charity
for twisted mental and emotional safety
Refusal to give up
Your image and privilege
Your egalitarianism is a sham
A big word not practiced
Is no shortcut to equality
Your dismissive tone is absurd
Weak attempts to escape accountability
egalitarian

Your egalitarianism is a sham
A big word not practiced
Is no shortcut to equality
Your dismissive tone is absurd
Weak attempts to escape accountability
