A week ago the fun was in the full
swing, celebrating the birthday of what Abraham Lincoln called a
“nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition
that all men are created equal” and in less than a week that
celebration has changed to outrage and mourning. And that's fucked.
Because here's a (by no means complete)
list of shit that doesn't matter:
- Your race- because that's not an actual thing.
- The color of your skin.
- Who your parents are.
- The color of your skin.
- How much money you have.
- The color of your skin.
- Where you went to school, grew up, or currently live.
- The color of your skin.
Where did things go wrong? How did we
turn into a society of self-centered fuckheads?
See, there are over 7 billion of us on
this little rock, spinning 1,000 miles per hour on its axis while
traveling 66,660 miles per hour around our tiny little star that is
moving 45,000 miles per hour around our galaxy that is traveling
483,000 miles per hour around the universe. Mind boggling numbers,
right? So why are we letting a handful of assholes ruin everything
for the rest of us?
Every group has its good members and
their bad ones. The trick is to overpower the bad ones with the good
we do, because we have to share this rock for the rest of most of our
lives.
If we're the product of four billion
years of evolution, it's time to get back to acting like it.
