Elucidating Questions

Do I watch it, and give that cheap orange soda human-wanna-be what he wants?

Or ignore it and possibly miss something important?

Because people don’t quote they just vaguely post things like “the things he said were bad and scary”

How am I to know if it’s any different than any other day he’s been bad and scary?

I don’t know what to say at this point

I fought my battles

Tried to change minds

There’s no doing it

I’ve never believed in anything strongly enough that it couldn’t be disproven besides my own identity

I’m not the same person I was fifteen years ago because of it

Hell, even my “I want good for everyone” stance comes with the dark,

Do they even deserve it?

Doubt in all ways

But to believe these things, with overwhelming evidence stating they’re wrong

I wonder what the point of it is?

What they’re getting out of it?

I don’t want the world to be hostile

I don’t want a place free of all conflict

Conflict exists

But widespread? Nationwide conflict?

International conflict

Groups of people getting in arguments and whatever

That’s normal

What’s not normal is killing eachother over things when we know what death is

What’s not normal is breeding billions of animals to suffer just to die when we know what both are

Half our food produced gets thrown out

That’s not normal when we know what being hungry is

And that there are hungry people

It’s not normal to hoard housing, or money, or people

Everything is just so blown out of proportion and we didn’t look for answers where things mattered

Like emissions, building materials, animal consumption, human welfare

Trying to find renewable resources

We can clone a fucking sheep but we can’t figure out how to manufacture food that tastes good enough and has enough nutrition to make up for the harm our consumption creates

And the demand for new bodies

The population must grow

Why?

I don’t know

There’s almost too much wrong with it to be worth putting it together

People would have to admit that we went the wrong way for a long time

Like, a really long time

And then dragged the rest of the world down to our level

Someone bless the untouched societies of the Earth

They don’t deserve to suffer for our failures
