I was writing a long comment about US immoral wars, economic sanctions, and CIA political assassination attempts on democratically elected leaders but what's the point. I am just so fucking tired of my own country. It is baffling that there are still people who are proud to be American.
The last bastion of belief I had in this place was the idea that it responded to attempts to improve it and no matter what we did in the past we could make it better for people now.
I think the more optimistic a person is the more prone they are to going the exact same distance the other direction when they realize the nature of things. Whatever that toxic character trait is called that is what mine is.
"To make a more perfect union..."
That was the dream.
There's a phrase/concept for it that I can't remember or find, and it's driving me crazy.
I refuse to yield the name America to the United States. It belongs to the whole damn continent.
