Wow, props. Pretty noble to "sacrifice" your graduation ceremony, and the opportunity to listen to a celebrity (as if... you know, that's something you wanna do), in order to send a strong message. Kudos to all of them that walked out. ❤️

Edit: this is not sarcasm.

Being a dick head on the internet towards people doing something morally correct but not enough for you is just obnoxious.

Sorry?

Are you saying I'm a dick head? For commending these students? I'm lost, please explain.

I wasn't being sarcastic, if that's what you thought.

No harm done, I got thick skin. I thought the heart would've really made it clear that it wasn't sarcasm but I guess people are super jaded and cynical online. 😅 Hard to tell tone in writing, etc.
