I am the result of unity, I carry four equally represented bloodlines. I cannot be at war with myself (that way literally lies madness).
I have no reason to believe we are all not equal nor do I identify with any racial part of myself.

Similarly I believe I am a microcosm in that when we fight each other, we fight ourselves, the same madness lies therein as well.

Only by not being divided, can we defeat the true enemies we all face, the same enemy that has us fighting each other for scraps have everything because they prey on us and the divisiveness they foster within us.

We live in the most prosperous of times and yet it is the largest portion that have the least, some so little that they literally freeze to death or die from illnesses that should not be killing them, or live in such poverty that one meal a day is a blessing.

Simultaneously the very, very few, the sociopaths among us have so much that they could literally not spend their wealth if they lived a thousand years.

They are so few, but we are legion, we must stop their obvious deceptions and ongoing attempts to have us distracted and at each others throats when we have so much in common, yet so little that make us different. They have been playing and winning this game of divide and conquer since the beginning of recorded history.

It is time FINALLY, to recognize it for what it is, gather together as one and win our equality in all things, it is time to stop dying and starving for their compulsive and insane greed and seek unity over divisiveness. This is the thing they fear above all else, it will be that fear of a united rather than divided populace that will force them to give us a sustainable life and the same freedoms for all that only some now enjoy.

I am not advocating blood, or confiscating all they have, I am advocating the unity they fear in order to live the lives we deserve, IIMO if we take all the excessive wealth we will be corrupted and back to square one, let them keep their lives and even one or two of their mansions but let us all have an upper middle class life and the dignity and rights that all humans deserve.

I am sorry that I tend to ramble on, it is one of the reasons I write so few OPs and choose to read more instead.

This post is a shorter synopsis of my main point that I am over writing here
