You may wonder why you write at all, to practice forgiveness is a fine reason, but your writing is also a balm and an education for the distressed. When I read you, or someone like Mike Brock, the pieces fall into place, my thoughts are put into words that I could not find, and I appreciate the community of compassionate people w/ moral clarity. You may not convince anyone on the other side, but you advance hope, dare I say it, for a Better World!
Well, no, your anger does not make you deranged in any way. Why would any humanist not feel intense anger towards the members of this species who are powering the supersystem to its demise?
However, fate has bequeathed us the conditions to be the only cohort of humans to see the trans-global stranglehold by the corporations and state corporations. If the process is fully and irredeemably corrupted by this madness of money, war, religion, and tribalism, then why should we imagine ourselves to be implicated in that overarching process or the feeble and unfocused attempts at regathering the shards of broken trust and hope?
Maybe it’s hard to write about anything political in view of the trap now sprung across all of human endeavor, but writing should be fun and gratifying to the self. The world is trying to tell people, in so many horrible ways day after more lunatic day, that the problems go deep, far deeper than could ever have been imagined before, and there need to be ways to live under that diagnosis.
