b t q. social movements are for young people. i even though i did a lot in fact with young people who rediscover themselves and identify as a different gender, often have to deal with feelings of shame, of being inferior. and are often confronted with a lack of understanding in their immediate circle. and i think online they find people who understand them. oh, accept them that to tell them you're okay the way you are. there's nothing wrong with you. yeah, we're just like you towards it as a 3rd of the ally. stanford is a, it's a relief for these young people to realize that they're no different and i'm for huh. and that they're welcomed by like minded people in a group and a community offline. i fear i, acceptance instead of ignorance, that's with fiona,

is committed to. she supports minorities, online shoots videos and writes online petitions. i will get, i finished the scan switch stick. that's one life in general. i think it's very important to simply listen to and help people who are treated bad or worse than others. and that's why social media is very good at bringing attention to such situations to inform life, whether it's black people or people who are jewish in between globe, let's just listen to them and make people aware of it. so i tossed off, it's the only way they can be helped, and more people can become aware of the problem with me and say g, everything's bed. and again, i guess we as of it when i brought us in government absolute, i just think that every person should be treated absolutely equal or new take on. it's absolutely unnecessary today in the 21st century to treat people differently because of their appearance, origin, faith, gender, sexuality, or religion. and that's why i think it's very important that we start now to
