It’s no secret that the whole Jussie Smollett situation has been shrouded in mystery but one thing is certain – as a gay black man, Jussie Smollett is a victim by default. We know this because of where he ranks on the intersectional heirarchy. He may be a movie star but he’s not privileged. He may be wealthy but it’s not enough.

Jussie Smollett fabricated his hate crime because he wanted to raise awareness of other hate crimes that are for sure happening – regardless of whether or not the evidence supports it. We know hate crimes are happening but when Jussie Smollett couldn’t find any to readily point out, what choice did he have?

Making this fabrication had its repercussions but luckily, the country is filled with smart and wonderful people. These smart and wonderful people have banded together and started a GoFundMe page to help Jussie Smollett fight hate crimes around the country. The goal was 1 million but in a staggering wave of liberal support, the cause grew to 5 million in only a couple of days!

I skipped out on rent this month to donate my entire paycheck to this GoFundMe. I will budget as much as I can this month to save up more money just to donate every spare dollar I have to this GoFundMe. Hate is real in this country and it’s worth every penny to stop.

This money will go straight to Jussie Smollet’s pocket to help pay his bills, his accomplices, his bail money as well as for supplies, manpower and materials needed to spread more awareness of the hate crimes that are sweeping through our country. Liberals know full well that hate is real in this country and will stop at nothing to end the hateful rhetoric that plagues the minds of those who aren’t already progressive themselves. Diversity is our strength.
