Reply #53: Nah. I mostly get disgusted

[Solly Mack]

We are lied to so much we either jump at anything even half-way plausible or go the other way and believe the absolute worse. Though considering the players, the worse is usually a safe bet.

I'm just tired of the lies. The people of the world are constantly being manipulated. Bombs are a form of manipulation. Death aand destruction are manipulation. Sometimes it's impposible remembering there's anything good about life. I don't think there's anything good about the current government paradigm(the world over). I do think it's possible for government to be good - but that has rarely been the case in my 41 one years. A government that lies is worthless to the people. Scratch a liar catch a thief and all that...


Now, if I'm that disgusted - how do the people feel who are doing the dying? I can't imagine their lives. Tears are pointless but it's all I have to offer them. My chest feels like it's being crushed and I want to scream....but none of that can help those dying. I want the people of the world to join together and say enough is enough already...and end the rule by the greedy and corrupt. But that's not going to happen.

My scariest dream? To be clueless. To escape into some halcyon dream and never see the world as it is again. Scary because it's so inviting.
