May 2022

but I'll say it again.

I'm not saying "most" people, I'm saying "too many" people in this country:

Are weak

Are spineless

View discomfort as something that is impossible to tolerate

Make excuses for not doing the right thing

Are out of their fucking minds

Think they are the only people on the planet

Think they understand what suffering is, but really have no idea

Think that because they are in good health, that everyone else is, and therefore, should act exactly the same as they do

Are unable to do hard things for any period of time

Think that they are experts on something because they read it on Facebook

Are dead stupid
