I need a hug guys.
I mean I knew these people were sick and evil, and I knew about a lot of this stuff separately.... but I've never had it all spelled out like this before, and I don't think I realized just how interconnected it all is. I'm absolutely horrified. Every time I think I've reached the bottom of the rabbit hole, it just keeps going.
Ugh, I don't know. I'm not trying to bring anyone down. I'm just horrified and I want justice EVEN MORE now. I want them all taken down. I want all of this crap public. I'm just disgusted, and I feel sick. How does this happen? How can people be like this?
Sorry, I'm just struggling to digest this. I think I need a break before finishing.
I know man, when that part with yellow vests came, I cried like a little b... Go hug your loved ones. After I've seen them, I went to hug my wife, utterly fucked up. She reminded me of a certain scene, and quoted it verbatim:
FRODO: I can’t do this, Sam.
SAM: I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened?
But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something.
FRODO: What are we holding on to, Sam?
SAM: That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.
