Now the republicans are screaming, they're playing the politics of fear, and The Right is screaming into your ears and you are playing right into their hands.
Now I have been (as I promised) increadibly brutal with you, and I apologize if I hurt your feelings. I would never talk to someone like this IRL, however, that doesn't make what I'm saying untrue. And I will be dammed if I see another person from my generation choose apathy without raising a din. You have stuck your head in the sand. Despite all your values, and all your intentions, that's where you are, and that's where you will remain until you grow up. Unless you find the strength to un-knot your mind and see the world how it really is, accept it, and change it, you will remain an oxygen thief, and you will remain a tool to be used and discarded b y the finks and the charlatans and the other wastes of humanity.
I hope you can pull this off, because you know what? Things aren't that bad. You're still white, and first-world, and you have opportunities that people in Haiti will never enjoy. You have power, Does this mean you can you change the world at your own whim? No. Are things going to be easy? No. But at least you'll be part of the solution and not part of the problem, and at the very least please stop trying to convince others to adopt, you're insane fucking political world view.
Anyway, I hope for the best for you, but it's not going to happen unless you change something profound within yourself.
Good luck, and until you do, I will continue to take you to task for every bit of bullshit I see come out of you.l

You haven't hurt my feelings. Thank you for being honest with me, as brutal as it's been. Some of your comments stung a bit, and if it makes you feel any better, your remarks haven't gone unheard. I'm sure I have a lot of growing to do, things to learn, and I expect to swallow my pride on more than several occasions. For now, I need to get my priorities straight, and like I said, the people around me and in my life are very important to me, so I will start there, and work on me as I go along.
Thanks again, until next time....
