Observation time on divisions
things are in the shiter, for EVERYBODY. We all know that.

We have people who cannot afford meds and kids who are having a hell of a time starting life

We have soldiers in harms way, and people (for the most part) don't give a shit about them

We have folks loosing their homes... and others unable to find jobs

Yet, what I see is one group of people blaming another and saying... I've got it harder than you (so have pity on me or I will blame you for my circumstances)

Well, as long as this attitude prevails... we will not be able to UNITE and work TOGETHER.

There are things we need to do in this society... to survive and help each other

But the first step, which many folks are incapable of taking... is to STOP BLAMING the other.

We are all in this boat TOGETHER

So start talking to friends and family, renew bridges and hold your politicos accountable... but at this point we need to WORK TOGETHER.

That is all

1. "F*cking Idealist!"
Don't you know that division is good for oligarchy/fascism! Preaching against the duly appoint gov't...DEATH FOR YOU!!!

:evilgrin:

My money is on us failing miserably to unite for our own good. Most of us can't even VOTE for our own good!

2. We've done it in the past
when things have been even more fucked up than they are right now

Hope is eternal (and not whatever a poltico sells by the way)

3. I know
But considering the lack of response so far, I'm not seeing us reaching a tipping point.

It's not polite to riot anymore...even when you are dying of starvation. I blame mass mind control. The number of empty husks out there is disheartening.

4. It will come... and when it does, it will shock everybody
I guarantee you it will come...

The tipping point is nearer than we think.

It is when people have little to loose left, or rather nothing to loose

5. I sure hope you are right
Because I know a lot of those people, and they are living on the hope that someone will magically fix the problem.
