1)Being that I am an American living here, I always get questioned about what life is like in the US. With the latest regarding the protests “why is this happening there? Why did police kill that man?” Being that this is random thoughts, I’ll not make any effort to be organized.....what the fuck is happening here? It’s kinda surreal to be honest. We’ve been seeing videos of police brutality for...fuck, way before I was born, and it seems as though a minuscule band-aid gets put on on the problem, people go to their shitty jobs, and we all forget about it. Based on media that I’ve been seeing, the only difference this time is that the protests have been going on for consecutive days rather than let’s say just during the weekend. the ability to protest is a beautiful thing but this, this literally made me sick
yes you have the right to protest, and yes you have the right to carry an assault weapon....but did you also know that you are legally allowed to shove the assault weapon up your ass? Just sayin, maybe these folks didn’t know.
2) I once posted a picture of Frederick Douglas on July 4 on my FB page...one person got what I was trying to say
3) is there a middle class anymore and what role does it play in today’s society?i remember one summer job I had during Uni was cutting grass. It became more obvious to me that the wealthy moved out of the city to avoid living near anyone considered as a minority....because you know, they will kill you just for being rich (my second attempt at sarcasm)....I say attempt because I do not consider myself as being good at sarcasm
4) it’s time for a rage song!
I read someone say a few years back during the 2016 US election that RATM needs to come back and that they were early for their time. Here’s the thing about this band, all their songs are timeless. Yea, some names might be from a certain decade, but the issues remain the same. This is why I don’t post blogs as often...my brain gets so caught up in rages and thoughts and I just lose my focus in the end and move on to something else....ok, Tourette’s statement over....you don’t need rage again...their music will always be here...yeah it would be nice if they came up with something new, but do people understand the meaning behind their songs? Even though they are from twenty plus years ago?
random thought: it has to start somewhere, it has to start some time, what better place than here, what better time than now.... what happened?
The DNC from 2000....shits changed since then, but the system has not. Still no honesty, still a greater rate of poverty, still just a few millionaires, and still a public who prefers watching TV than giving a fuck about starving children.
Isn’t it great that there’s a little child dying of hunger and the majority of people care about the game of thrones finale? (Another attempt at sarcasm) It’s how the corporate system was set up....let a bunch of sheep buy the product.
you know, I don’t give a rats ass about someone with their yacht, but at least let no one suffer...
It’s easy to complain and not offer solutions....my only solution is love and respect...two things that every single person on earth is capable of..
so more random thoughts:
