My autistic ass was always thinking "Ok, so box this up and send it to them. I don't want it, so why would i waste it by eating it?" It took me years to understand what was being said lol

Ironically I’m European, and as a kid watched a documentary on starving children eating rats in Las Vegas, that had a lasting impact on my view of America lol

I learned that my family specifically meant the children in Biafra. Eventhough I was born in the 90s. I think those pictures really had an impact.

I always hated the "starving children in Africa" jokes , whenever my parents would say it I would usually respond with "and there are starving children in our country as well" .
