(13,355 posts)those three things are terribly frightening standing alone, combined, we are in some serious shit - especially since we are just 'citizens' and we make no difference, the huge steamroller of govt and corporate willpower and greed will just mow us down.
IMO Occupy was a beginning of something, but look how systematically they were crushed by the police state and DHS
I personally wish there was a way to fight back, make a difference and get this thing turned around, but alas, I am but one middle aged woman with kids and living on foodstamps myself... I am worn down just surviving, all I can DO is feel the rage and the despair, but I lack the physical stamina for more than that...
That's why they continue to win and rape the planet and pillage our children's future and enslave us for their use... because we are too hungry and worn down to fight back. God it's like being stuck in an abusive relationship... because as fucked up as it all is, I am *STILL* trying to fix my life and get my degree and make the money and give my kids a future...even if it IS futile.
insanity, clearly
depressing, definitely
