You know, I do not like to post personal things online yet you, op, have pissed me off to the point of having a catharsis. The following is not easy
for me to write as it rubs the salt of reality in deep wounds that, at the rate all nations are going, will never heal in my heart. Read and digest
this for you and those that mindlessly agree with you:
I come from a wealthy industrialist south american family. All my childhood I have had live-in maids, more trips to disney world I could count, all
toys a kid could want, lived in a mansion, personal nanny and driver, etc. I was a 1% just like my brother, cousins and private school friends. Im
telling you, in those conditions there is nothing that could stop me from experiencing this "heaven on earth" you speak of...EXCEPT that I have seen
some heavy, unjust evil #.
At any stop light you'd have your car overwhelmed by dirty, starved kids trying to wash your windows for coin. Kids my own age and way younger,
dirty-faced pleading for money. Many times I lowered my window and gave them my school lunchbox contents. My parents would get angry at me for doing
so as I was just drawing in more undesirables. My friends, now I see what a bunch of sickos they were brainwashed to be, would laugh and call me a
communist, peasant-lover while making disgusted faces.
Living in their "heaven-state", as you believe the world to be, old-looking, beaten down peasant women with babies strapped to their backs sit
against a building, begging while passerbys ignore or wave her away with disgust. Little better off, my maids appeared cheery (they better or got the
boot) yet I was aware daily of their hard work. 6am til 11pm they worked, monday through saturday. Paid little, exploited while the masters raked in
millions from people like them through overpriced metallurgic products and underpaid workers. You should hear my uncles foam at the mouth and laugh
when their hundreds of miserable workers tried to unionize. The police, comprised of their own social class yet faithful to the masters' wallet, did
short work of them outside the industry walls. All my friends' and cousins' maids, butlers and drivers worked as hard yet were treated worse than
second class citizens. Just to clarify so you dont think that my family was the exception which I wish it were.
The peasants were a step above the pack of boxer dogs we had living in our huge garden. Oh, but our parents would reinforce their own outlook
towards the peasantry, 99%ers. They would talk amongst themselves in front of us kids how the peasants were nothing but throwaway filthy cattle.
Were were instructed to never mix our pure, whatever that means, european blood with the indigenous brown ones as their "poop color" and llama-faces
cannot be erradicated in many generations. This view is homogeneous amongst the 1% there and virtually in any other country, except for minor
cultural tweaks of course.
Funny thing, we would go to one of the ultra rich churches and the congregation would be dressed in thousand dollar suits and dresses while the
lavish, golden robed priest would parrot on about the teachings of Jesus towards the poor and downtrodden. Outside, the hungry, begging kids had
already been scared away by the church's security personell. Talk about hypocritical rich bastards and their sniveling hired hands!
After living my childhood and teenage years in this "elites' paradise" I decided to gtfo out of dodge and travel with the excuse of attending
college overseas. My mom's snobby ways helped me do this as she paid for anything I wanted to do that would have people talking positively of her.
Anyhow, I have seen misery in many countries in the world and made it a point to interact with those I was shielded from in my youth. I go back
every year to visit family and sadly find the same sad state of affairs taking shape in the US upon my return.
The world can be heaven but for only the sheltered few and the predatory, psychopaths on top of the food chain as reality sure is different for the
rest.
So...
How can you tell those poor street kids that their misery is a state of mind? Got any special kundalini techniques to help them visualize a
paradise out of their daily horror? These kids are beaten, raped and exploited by others that survived the same horrifying childhood they are going
through. Kids forced to pick garbage through landfills and even into prostitution. As a teenager, I'd go out with my friends partying and would get
so bummed out to see four year old kids still walking around at three in the morning wiping windshields. Elderly people that could hardly walk
extending their emaciated hand for a coin in the middle of winter at four am. All this exists yet you have the goddamn nerve to post your narrow
minded, "la-la-la cant hear you" bull and expect people to agree with you? Shame on you! If you believe in karma then reap what you sow. *Ptoo*
