I'm Disappointed In Us

Post by mnaz » January 6th, 2024, 10:34 pm

We keep killing each other.
There's always a good reason.
We keep killing each other, but
there's always a damn reason.

We keep killing each other.
There's always a good reason.
We keep on killing each other.
There's always a good reason.

I’m disappointed in us.
There’s never a good reason to kill each other.
Never.

humans are easily led
by charisma, by sacred books
with unknown authors.....
humans often feel they don't have enough
and there is someone other than god to blame....
humans are easily convinced that if they are ever
going to be fullfilled
someone needs to be elimimated,
that someone must die for their unhappiness
of course this is nonsense
but it is the great flaw in humanity
for this reason aliens keep their distance
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

I was optimistic for a long time, arguably foolishly, and I listened to reports of how we won this war and that and especially the "cold" war, as if there was any other kind, but then Putin did his shit and Hamas did its shit and I can't believe I was so so foolish as to believe in us, but what was the alternative?
