Two years ago unbeknownst to us this virus was kicking up, and becoming a thing. It was in the “don’t look up” phase. The Doctor, Who was trying to raise awareness, died from the virus. Then the world moved into an extraordinary event for the first time ever, on this planet, ever❗️We were all dealing with the same issue, at the same time. Instead of recognizing our shared catastrophe, Americans spent their time pointing fingers, and hoarding whatever they could. The usual suspects saw this as an opportunity to price gouge, or take control, and they did. America created villains, to to distract from themselves, because that’s what we do in America now.
My thoughts are not about this collective, or a group of people, at all! This is about personal responsibility. Look at ourselves. Look at what we did, and didn’t do. because both are equally harmful and have added to the state of America today.
Starting with the Republican party and most of the Democratic Party. shame on you! Both parties are supposed to be a part of a government that’s representative of those who voted them in. Expecting them to represent their communities and make their constituents lives sustainable, shame on you. Every individual in our government who has heard, thought or said things that they know are destructive to our democracy, and did not stand up, or by those who bravely did. shame on you. As for the Democratic Party!? at a time America is failing, all you’ve done is argue with your fellow democrats, this country that is supposed to be, the united states of America. Neither party is respecting the vote, the only voice of the people. shame on you. I expected the Progressive’s to work on our behalf and yes even be willing to take a stand. That’s why we donated our money and time to get them there. we supported them in the streets when needed. We never required talking points as does the republican Party, we trusted you, shame on us. We ended up with Democrats who care about Joe Biden‘s feelings, advertisements, which news organizations will call, they don’t call out their colleagues as the corporate bought shills, they are. we got nothing⁉️ Nothing is just as bad as taking money to work against the people’s well being. Which many of the Democratic’s did as well. Then used our precious and possibly last, fair vote, to fight amongst themselves⁉️
The result of this; We The People do not have a single government entity to look to, to either guide us or move forward? What are we to do❓
I want us to stop, and take a good hard look at ourselves, individually, us, who’ve said and done nothing⁉️ Any of the compromises large or small that you made that were not for the good of the country or the people, shame on you. Any of the secrets you kept that could have prevented even one death or destructive action. Shame on you. For those of you who would think it naïve to believe that everyone could be honest, I believe when your job is to make decisions that affect the United States of America, honesty and openness is the very least we should expect, demand, and call out‼️ We need the legal Guard rails that have been quietly removed over the past 30, 40 years. it’s the only way we’ll remain united. Everyone’s silence has allowed us to come to this point. shame on us❗️
How can your fame or money be more important than The fires in California, the devastation in the middle part of this country, water shortages in the west, lead in the drinking water elsewhere, In our United States❗️As for the American people; Those of us who say and do nothing! Are responsible. for the treatment of the indigenous people of this country, and The black man who walks out the door, of his home, into a rabbit society that may turn on him at any moment.
Our collective action or inaction, has created a lawless, out of control, largest polluting country in the world❗️Before you individually start pointing fingers at anything or anyone I’m asking that you look at yourself. What did you do, or not do, this year? What truth did you not tell, what alarm did you not sound. Which of your powers or privileges did you not use❓This question is for everyone. those of you who went to a food bank during the past two years for convenience not need. All the way to those who took government funding they didn’t deserve at a time of crisis for this country. Most importantly for this rant, those of you who stood by and saw this and all the other atrocities happen and said nothing‼️ Just as during the rise of Hitler, we “the citizens” are responsible for the world we create, and/or stand by and do nothing.
The rest of the world can only stand by as we honor aggressive and frightening behavior. While here at home, two of our wealthiest recipient of Government funding take rocket rides into space pouring yet more pollution into this fragile planet. As if that weren’t enough; every year at this time, as sort of a year end gift to the other aggressive dictators around the world. We fill arms contract’s. How many of you are proud of this country we created❓
Shame on all of us❗️ each and everyone❗️
