She might not be attractive to you, but you have no right to make her feel self-conscious.
He might not be the best athlete, but that's no excuse to think that you're better than him.
Her shyness causes her to alienate herself from the rest of the crowd, so you consider her as snobby.
His interests and hobbies are different from the other guys, so you think of him as a freak or a nerd.
Who gave you permission to be so judgmental and critical?
Who told you that it was acceptable to deteriorate the worth of others?
You force people to conform to your mistaken ideas.
You consider being different as bad, as wrong.
You make people feel like they aren't good enough because you constantly tell them that they're not.
No matter how much people try to gain your acceptance,
they fall short because you always ask for too much.
It is impossible to please you. Nothing is ever good enough for you.
You deceive people into believing your lies.
You target those who don't have enough love and confidence in their lives.
From the girl who feels overweight,
to the guy who feels small and weak.
You suck the life out of them,
and then move on to your next victim.
So tell me, society, have you no shame?
