and I want to be a force for unity.

it would quickly turn my feed
into an endless drip of outrage.
I didn’t post about your cause because
I’m not an activist
and empty words are usually just slacktivism.
I didn’t post about your cause because
I don’t want to be a victim of audience capture
where my content is dictated by a loud minority.
I didn’t post about your cause because
your cause is not my cause.
I didn’t post about your cause because
I don’t take requests
I’m not a DJ.
It’s my platform and I’ll post if I want to.
I didn’t post about your cause.
Because.
