There are people in this world that literally consider me subhuman. They are doing their best to eradicate me and my kind. This isn't minor, this is systemic and a dominant view in society today, and I'm not the only minority that's a target of things like that.

I'm not going to "protect and respect" those who seek to destroy me. I'm doing my best to destroy them.

Andrew WK is acting like there is room for me to come to an understanding with people like that, and agree to disagree. I'm sorry, but no. I don't get a choice. I either fight or die.
