Fuck capitalism.

Fuck the fact that undocumented immigrants are now allowed to kill and die for the US, but still afforded no basic civil and human rights.

Fuck this Uber driver who gropped a female passanger and explained that she was “asking for that” because she was wearing a low-cut shirt.

Fuck Boko Haram.

Just…fuck. “I was too poor to have a baby, and too poor to have an abortion.”

Fuck the Pennsylvania attorney general’s office for arguing that a former state prison clerk who was raped by an inmate was to blame for her own assault.

Fuck the NYPD.
