I think a lot of people are very much pissed about their situations, but also mislead and/or ignorant about what the problems actually are, how solutions can be enacted, and both who can lead and who to blame.
There's also burnout. I think most people are just trying to make sure they can get to work, see their family, raise their kids, etc. The system works to grind us down so we don't put up a fight, and the system is working well.
:( I’m burnt out. It’s over. Soon I won’t have time for these rants that are fueled by the absolute lack of real meaning.
I feel like a crazy yelling into the void. I mean, I am but…
I really wish I had managed to convince at least one person to actually do something locally, instead I alienated myself from my friends and family.
Here’s hoping that soon there is a reactionary revolutionist that is born under the right circumstances to enact real change.
