I'm sorry truly but the 'collective
WE' deserve just what we're about to get.
How long since you've stood up for something - going against the crowd, your peers, even your family? Can you remember? Or is it easier to just
forget the countless instances when you swallowed back what you wanted to say and just went back to flipping the channel on the remote control?
How long since a group of you? ANY GROUP? Stood up for what you believe(d) in - taking a chance on being punished, censored, ridiculed?
How long since WE AS A NATION - ANY NATION - stood firm and said NO to TPTB?
Do I include myself in the above - all three? Yes.
Do I feel already defeated without trying? Yes.
Do I try in SMALL WAYS every single freakin day to make a difference? YES!
But I do NOT congratulate myself for this because it's never ever
enough.
So, sing along Amerika! 'With the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air...'...and then trail off into vague mumbling because even though we
might remember the lyrics we've completely forgotten and forsworn the meaning and TRUTH behind them.
We deserve as a species to be wiped off the face of the earth at this point. I'm rooting for it honestly - and I'm also rooting for those few who
will survive that will never ever forget what we could have been - and are not.
peace
