America and western ways of living/thought is an infection, and I worry that it has gotten to the whole world through the mental and physical violence they use to throw their weight around. The manipulative tactics of media and coercion through the purposeful holding of resources....

I have hope for the next generation, but its very hard for me to not look at older people as idiots... even though I know they are not to blame either. But the fact they are so adamantly trying to double down on a system that obviously does not work for the majority of humans makes me have disdain for them and their intelligence... It's not right, I know, and I ultimately know the reasons for it so I try to show them compassion... but I'd rather show them compassion from very far away and never have to talk to them or be around them hahaha I'm working on being better about it though
