Quote by Christopher Isherwood
What irritates me is the bland way people go around saying, 'Oh, our attitude has changed. We don't dislike these people any more.' But by the strangest coincidence, they haven't taken away the injustice the laws are still on the books.
Summary
This quote highlights the hypocrisy often seen when people claim to have changed their attitude towards a certain group but fail to address the actual discriminatory laws and policies in place. The speaker expresses annoyance towards individuals who merely pay lip service to the notion of inclusivity, without taking any concrete actions to rectify systemic injustices. It serves as a critique of superficial shifts in public opinion, emphasizing the need for meaningful change and the eradication of discriminatory laws that perpetuate inequality.
