Angry World

[Ripley]

The seething, frothing at the mouth, spittle spewing anger cannot be contained. People have used abused and confused their place on Earth and it is a downward spiraling wasteland of piss and shit that they wallow in as they consider their next orgy of their niche religious erection.

Opulent wasteland is what has become of us. Too lazy to get up and change the channel and too stupid to care what’s on. Too fat to defend ourselves, too dumb to hate the whip that keeps on striking.

Constantly manipulated and constantly following their lead.

The rise in anger and hatred and violence is evident everywhere and it comes from the top down. The Bush government says torture okay, spying on Americans okay and HELL, everything is okay as long as you DO WHAT THE AUTHORITIES SAY...

1. The Question to ask is WHAT

Is causing the anger.

I think it's abuse.abuse of privilege power sex,childhood and vulnerability.

Psychopaths live to abuse people and power.They exploit don't play fair and bully.

Child abuse is rampant and child abuse does not make people psychopaths. Psychiopaths abuse people regardless of how they are brought up.And they commit most of the crimes too.

People suffer in this world, they are consious of it,when they are at their most vulnerable it hits if it isn't nature fucking us up,it is abusive assholes among us fucking us over.

We are growing up in a world of pain suffering and we cannot control what happens we cannot foresee it,we can do our best and fail anyway and on top of that we blame ourselves for this mess. Bullies still bully and the rich get richer.

Until the way we relate changes nothing in the way society is changes.The world will still have floods famines and hurricanes.But do we have to stand by like bumps on a pickle as others get hurt by bad people? Do we have to beat those weaker than ourselves to feel better? Do we have to compete against each other? Do we need social rank?
Why do we tolerate the intolerable?

Why does the brain reward us when we witness others misfortunes? Why does the brain release opiates when we seek revenge? Isn't that fucked up?

Our biology screws us, the Earth screws us, nature screws us, society screws us... Damn right we are pissed.

I for one want OUT.Out of this condition of suffering.

But I have no clue how to make it happen.
Many "wise teachers" tried from Buddha to Jesus to Muhammad to Krishna..none have had the answer to this mess. Because It cannot be fixed no matter how nice we are to one another. The world is fucked up to it's core.A tragic prison planet.Were we all suffer until we die. Damn right I am pissed.Why is it this way? Why? Nobody has the answer.
It's infuriating.

2. Its not that people are too lazy

Its that they have been inundated with information. Multiple channels of 24 hour news stations constantly churn out complex and conflicting information. Combined with their tendency to favor violent and fear mongering stories the people are rendered overwhelmed, frightened, and stressed into a paralyzed state.
