So many people back home who’ve been smeared thoroughly as being poor because of their own weakness or vices who absolutely could be like this awesome guy if only they had the opportunity. So many people robbed of the opportunity to excel and contribute to humanity’s advance held back because less than 0.1% of the population have to have all the wealth and to keep people down.
Every poverty stricken addict, every homeless person, every hopeless poverty stricken drunk, every angry starving person, every victim of natural disasters; these people are all victims of injustice by a self destructive system that cons the people mere steps above these victims into waiting just a little longer, just another presidential term, just another four more years, just a little wee bit longer, telling them it’ll all be okay soon, and if it just gives the appearance of leveling off, then this is the new reality and people are crazy for thinking it could be better; a system that gaslights people into accepting life as a disposable battery for the ultra wealthy.
We smear third world countries and yet there are so many third world countries that offer infinitely more for their people than ours does; we watch as so many more of our people, considered expendable, get expended.
How many people back home could’ve been phd holders? How many people back home could’ve become our greatest scientists? The addict who can barely stand up, addicted because life is miserable and he has no hope for a future, could’ve been one of our country’s brightest. Where is our Mao?
