Am I the only one getting really sick of the blame game in this world? Am I the only one fed up enough to talk about it?

Russia this. Syria that. Iran this. ISIS that. Geopolitical Banksters this, Illuminati that. Donald Trump this, Hillary Clinton that. Liberals this, Conservatives that. Blah blah blah. As equally TRUE as ALL SIDES of these arguments ARE, has anyone ever stopped to consider LOOKING IN THE MIRROR for where to place the blame? Is everyone so hateful and hopeless that they won't stop for a second to think that maybe everyone deserves what everyone has been getting?

I don't mean "deserves" from a "moral" standpoint, I mean it as far as physics and consequences. Water is wet. Rocks are hard. Fire burns. He (or she) who fucks up, gets fucked. Consequences, you know?

The psychopaths who rule this world are the extreme minority. The rest of us, are the majority. WE LET THEM DO THE THINGS TO US THAT THEY DO. We refuse to take personal responsibility. We complain about all of the hate and bigotry and genocide and war and criminality that others are doing, and we do so while being hateful and bigoted and putting both our money and our support into genocide and war.

Ask everyone if they want to pause and be loving and get together and work with each other to do good works and good things and inspire others towards the positive, and you get looked at like some pollyanna nut job that is suggesting that we go talk to the unicorns on the magic rainbow. But yeah, suggest we go blow shit up or go kick someones ass because we "hate them" and yeah, we're all for that, aren't we? Doing so while saying we should do it because "those others guys" are just so "mean and hateful" and need to be destroyed. We're such hypocrites. Its like Hitler bitching about the KKK for being racist, metaphorically speaking.

Atheists with all of their pseudo-intellectual logic and reason, acting more illogical and unreasonable than most people. Christians professing the love of Christ acting with such hate and contempt that they even fight with each other about which person or group is "a real Christian", forsaking all others. So-called "patriots" fighting each other over which subjective view of freedom qualifies as freedom. So called "truthers" battling with each other and when any two slightly disagree with each other, they post hate about each other and accuse each other of being government agents. The Independent Media becoming just as indulged in ratings and propaganda and spin as much as the main stream ever has been.

The bible says we will love our neighbors equally to what we love ourselves. More true words have never been spoken. Look around. How do most people feel about themselves? How much low self esteem, lack of self worth and self loathing are most people experiencing? You're damned right people are absolutely treating their fellow man according to exactly how they view themselves.

Is it time for a change? Or do you all want to keep doing as you've been doing, making the same historical mistakes over and over. When is enough, enough? When is it time to stop hating ourselves and others, and start loving ourselves and others? When is it time to stop fighting each other and start working together?

If you can't respond to this with saying "I'm willing, lets do something about it!" then you are a part of the problem.

Llama Emoji-81 (Heart You) [V4] Such a lovely rant (too short if you asked me lol)!  It's beautiful... Even I don't think I could have made it that short and eloquent.  Sweeeet!

I keep telling people this shite and they also think I'm a nut job with ideals of living in an impossible utopian world (which I adamantly deny).  As examples, since when has kindness and cooperation become utopian ideals?  To be clear, anyone who pushes for peace is as dangerous as the ones who push for war (have you noticed -- they're usually the same people).  Dichotomy sabotages all our efforts... ;)

If we're stupid enough to allow ourselves to be played, what do we expect?  I get that we've been brainwashed to hate ourselves and others...  We are born into systems meant to condition and control us.  But, there comes a point where you just have to stop and WAKE UP.  In this day and age?  Look around!  The signs are everywhere and the information is at our fingertips.  There's no excuse to keep sleeping.

It starts with one person with courage to face it and voice it...  We owe it to each other.

Anyway, I'm glad there's a few of us out here with big mouths (thank friggin' gawd).

Well done! 8-) :thumbsup:
