2.2k Views

A sign being held by a protestor was shared by the famous artist Banksy and has taken the internet by storm. It’s not hard to see why, Banksy is an anonymous England-based graffiti artist, political activist, and film director. He usually bases his works on social injustice and just overall issues against humanity. Reading this sign really hits home, some people might call it a fairy-tale or La-la land a world where we actually live in peace. Some people are too closed minded to ever co-exist, some people genuinely believe it’s programmed into us to hate each other. I’m no scientist, but I certainly hope not.

I got nothing but love for all of y’all I don’t care where you’re from, how much you make, or what color you are. As long as you’re not an evil person I have no ill will towards you and I feel like the world could be better off that way. I guess that’s the sad optimism behind this sign, and it seems so simple yet, so impossible to change the ways of the world. Obviously, the internet had a huge reaction to this post, most of Banksy’Ms followers are folks looking for a change in the world who actively resonate with this message. Maybe we all need a little Banksy in our lives?

Tell ’em Banksy!

Now not everyone seems to agree with Banksy’s progressive ideas and that’s perfectly fine. Not everyone has to agree on all matters, that’s unrealistic. Having the ability to empathize with others and realize what’s best for you might not be the best for them is something we should work on. Be more openminded to compromise opposed to one cookie cutter idea, that’s the idea’s Banky’s trying to share, the human race can be so much better than what we are at the moment. It’s just going to take some change on all levels significant to small, stay woke, kids.
