Judge ME, not my Government

My country was last fighting the right battle in WWII.  Since then, we've invaded countries to interfere in their national politics (Vietnam), gone to war for oil (Gulf Wars I and II) and stood by idly watching genocide (the act we helped to stop in WWII) in Rwanda, for which we didn't apologize until many years later, and now again in Darfur, for which we probably won't apologize for many years to come.  We are also responsible, nationally, for thousands of drug related deaths by not making safe drugs available, and shunning drug users so they are too scared to seek help.  Our prison system exists to keep criminals in jail, rather than rehabilitate them, so their children grow up thinking that jail is just another part of life, and it means less to them.  The prison system perpetuates itself for the financial sake of those who own the prisons.  We continue to discriminate based on race and religion all over the world, helping only those who we deem financially worthwhile. I am ashamed of my Government.  Judge me, not my Government.

I I I ME ME ME that's all I see. self proclaimed superiority I am full of guilt and shame. I should be so much more . I have been given so many opportunities, and I piss in their face. I am never satisfied. I have been happy, truly, genuinely, first reactionary, happy twice. I'm no fool. These thought processes are recognized, and purposely counterweighted with false positivity. A doctor would give me drugs. I will give myself what they call drugs. I'll help you out brother. If your eyes could only see the nights sky as it was intended, as it actually is, not a washed out reflection of man made energies, then we surely would not be discussing such a depressing topic. If you lived with the drive that drove our ancestors to survive, not thrive, you would know yourself, not wholly but more.

Been happy, truly, genuinely, first reactionary, happy(2). Not a fool. Recognized thought processes, purposely counterweighted with false positivity. A doctor would give drugs. Take what they call drugs.

If we lived the drive that drove our ancestors to survive, not thrive, we would know, not wholly but more. The above applies, this is known fully. For what is the point if it isn't to feel good and good and good then better and better and better then great then great all while spreading disease of infinite disappointment(joy). Be willing to accept the fact that everything learned, everything shared with the world today, could be false. No respect to those who do not. However unlikely, we must accept that COULD be wrong. This will free us, such as it did, and will. The answer to the question you are asking now, RIGHT NOW, THIS VERY MOMENT IN THIS CURRENT TIME...IS.... Yes. I am.would you be willing to accept the fact that everything you have learned, everything you have shared with the world today, could in fact be false? I don't respect anyone who can not admit that. However unlikely, you must accept that you COULD be wrong. This will free you, such as it did myself.
