You're right. It does have the same energy to it, doesn't it? But of course, it also feels like that kind of regression permeates nearly every layer of society now, which is really sad. We should get angry before it's too late.
Some of us have been fucking furious for over two decades now and it hasn't done shit except increase our blood pressure and having all the dumb fucking dimwits around us acting like we're crazy for being upset at how absolutely fucked things are.
I've been angry since my early twenties. I'm in my forties now and I'm still angry but guess what I'm fucking tired. Which is what the people in charge want, of course. They want us so broken by this system that we give up on fighting back because it's hard to fight back when you've been diagnosed with a fucking disease that will bankrupt you financially.
They have us right where they want us, and most people are too toothlessly uneducated to even fucking know it's going on and get so so upset when you get angry for good fucking reasons. "Please calm down" bullshit from motherfuckers enabling the shit streaming down our fucking faces. It's fucking lunacy.
I haven’t really seen my exact situation & frustration put so perfectly.
I know it’s exhausting, but just reading this helps remind me that I’m not alone.
So just know, you’re not alone.
There are at least 3 of us
Dozens.
