It’s already June 2022, and this is my first blog post of the year! So much has changed in my personal life, and I have put my online business (and online presence in general) to the side. I’ve been devoting myself to a rural spiritual community, preparing for supply chain disruptions, etc. From my perspective there is little improvement in the community, although I am certainly continuing to grow as an individual. Getting American white people to unite together for a common cause is harder than getting them to detach from their egos (LOL hint; these two things are actually the same!) The internet sometimes gives me better friendship anyway, so I’m back baby!
For a time, when I was young (90s and 2000s), I could clearly see there were some ‘bad hombres’ in charge of America, and maybe the world. The best example of this is 911; the destruction of the twin towers and the war on terror. Who is the real terrorist? The dozen guys who take over a couple planes and crashed them into a few buildings, or the millions of American military who bombed innocents in Iraq and Afghanistan ‘in the name of democracy and the war on terror’?
What I see now, especially in Western democracies, is that it’s MORE OUR fault than the ‘Government’s’ fault. Regardless of what that means to you; politicians, bankers, whatever. That’s what democracy means! Government is not a they, it’s an us. Accountability is NOWHERE to be found, not in them, not in us. As long as this is the case, and even alternative intentional communities are failing, I’ll be looking to move back to Asia, or South America, or somewhere far away from ‘rich white people’ countries as I like to call them.
Looks like it took me almost 2 years to finish this post, so I’m just going to post it now instead of caring too much about making it perfect.
