Elucidating Questions

I feel so out of place

Like I don’t belong here

There’s nothing to tether me here

If I knew it wouldn’t kill all of them and or start white people tourism I would go live in an uncontacted tribe of people

There is nothing that makes me want to stay here, besides the Earth herself

And she cannot sustain me

Because no one taught me how to sustain myself

They beat the wild out of all of us

With this society of theirs

Borders don’t exist

Race doesn’t exist

These are not things you can prove exist

Culture exists

Lineage certainly exists

Generational traumas of the dewilding of the general population so we are helpless but to continue fueling the fires of capitalism and greed until we choke on our own smoke

And when we start begging for air they sell it to us

New and Improved Air

Packaged straight to you for the low low cost of existing

Maybe “competing” air companies pop up

Sexualised ads of men sipping air surrounded by half naked women

“For the intake of it”

Or something saucy and poppy that I can’t come up with because I don’t specialise in the manipulation of people

While around them the fires get hotter

Demand more fuel

The ones making the money are sitting in their air purified mansions and they don’t care if they’ll destroy the world because at least they “got theirs”

People who believe only in exponential gain for themselves should be given the least of what the least greedy person wants

But exponential gain is all that people seem to believe in these days

So many things get too big and then pop

Bubbles, balloons, Stars, allegedly whatever started the Universe itself

And you don’t think maybe just maybe moderation is key?

I don’t know if planets pop if they get too big, but I’d bet they do

There’s always an upper limit

You could push it, but why?

Why when our planet as she is still has everything to sustain us for generations?

Giving a greedy man a currency

Humanity is If You Give a Mouse a Cookie in real time, long run, full codex completion with the added bonuses of racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, sexism, ageism, and hatred just in general

Contempt for eachother

Because if we cared about the people beyond our scope of existence we wouldn’t be letting this happen

We wouldn’t shrug as not only our freedoms, our livelihoods, our families, were affected if we cared about everyone else too because we’d see the bigger picture

And sometimes I feel outraged that my place on this planet is decided by accepted fascisms

It’s all fascism

Law and the enforcement of it are fascism, people just have historically mostly agreed on the laws set forth

Our contempt is shown in how we lock people away for perceived misdeeds without ever considering who those laws served and why

Like sending drug users to jail.

Who are you protecting from what?

So many things in our existence need to be closely looked at and re-evaluated because

Imagine humanity is the first “intelligent” civilization in the Universe (don’t laugh too hard about the intelligence bit)

And we invented a massive blue torture chamber for ourselves

Less some couple thousand people

Out of billions

Are you not embarrassed?

And if there are other civilizations out there watching us who have better technology than we do

Are you not ashamed?

They toiled and broke their bodies every day so they could kick their young out of the house and force them to do it again while the rich prevented support from being distributed to the elderly people who could no longer work because they’d broken themselves just so they could force their offspring to do the same thing

Nevermind what you do to disabled people

And I’m the insane one

Meanwhile less than 1% of the population is partying

If you want to tell me that society’s goal was the exponential gain of less than a city of people

While the rest of the world toils

Humanity has very strange priorities and I cannot in good conscience be a part of them

It’s Omelas in reverse

And I couldn’t stand Omelas as it was
