Reply #92: Hate is rooted in fear

[Hydra]

And there are a lot of scared people these days.

Do they have reason? Many of the ones here do. They see the writing on the wall.

I, myself, do not hate. I'm beyond fear now. I've been afraid for so long, that I've reached a new place- a place empty of hope, a place where I have nothing left to be taken from me.

In this bizarre place I inhabit now, there is nothing but action and non-action. Choices.

I'm angry. I burn with that anger. I'm confused, too. The world seems to be the same as it was last week, but in my mind, I know it's not. Laws are gone, if they were ever here to begin with. The foxes are dining well in the hen house.

There is clarity here, though. Will we accept our slide into oblivion, or will we do something effective to shut these people down?

For my part, I will do my best to educate the people that want to be educated, and I'll shout down the people that say that we shouldn't do everything and anything in our power to stop this.
