I'm intrigued by your comment, not sure if I totally grasp it.
But I want to add, we need to find a method to convert those things into action and organization.
I can realize within myself that I'm overly angry, but I do attribute that to constantly fighting american leftists over if the usa is bad or not. They fucking deprogram a bit to see "yeah maybe we should have healthcare", then parrot imperialist talking points or say heinous things.
It's like they freeze and react negatively when someone points our "actually america IS bad and worse than you are realizing", then its back to burgerland defense force somehow.
Maddening shit.
But the point is to realize the gravity and reality of the situation. Not to shit on any individual, but to understand the problems we must resolve. So conversion of the guilt, defeatism, and circlejerk MUST be converted into action.
Thats what I really want to get to but americans refuse to budge on the stupidest shit. I try not to give up but GOD FUCKING DAMMIT.
