Talking to someone about human trafficking today, led to Asian hate being posted before the Atlanta attacks, and how a leftist psychologist or psychiatrist could facilitate an attack with drugs and hypnotherapy. Well, not only could he NOT accept the human trafficking, but the FF possibility was WAY too much. Said he'd rather not think about things like that but would rather believe there's more good than bad. I do too, I said. However, if Good Men do nothing, Evil Proliferates. He wouldn't even accept the human trafficking website as real, even though it links directly to the reports.
THEY HAVE LITERALLY CONVINCED PEOPLE EVIL IS GOOD OR IT JUST DOESN'T EXIST AT ALL, APPARENTLY.
THE TRUTH WILL NEED TO BE CRAMMED DOWN THEIR THROATS, OTHERWISE, THEY WON'T BELIEVE IT.
THIS IS DISTURBING! WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE? POOR KIDS!! NO ONE WILL RESCUE YOU IF THEY DON'T BELIEVE YOU NEED HELP.
THIS IS NOT AMERICA. DISGUSTING COWARDS. it's not like they actually have to DO anything except raise awareness!
Most people when confronted with this reality, they feel complicit. Well, they are. We all are. You're guilty. I'm guilty. We let it happen.
What are we going to do about it? What can we do about it?
The thing is, good people used to believe that good people were doing something about it, were fighting it. We were right and wrong. Right that good people that can fight, are fighting. Wrong about who those good people are, and who they have to fight the hardest.
As long as good people who can fight, are fighting, maybe somehow we aren't totally guilty. When the time comes for us to fight, when those good people who have been fighting all along ask us for help, what will you do?
It's not just the human trafficking, either. You think that's terrible, I can barely comprehend what lies deeper than that.
I'm prepared to give up everything if I ever get the call, personally. I'm prepared to give up everything if (God forbid) I ever come to know that those good people who have been fighting, have been defeated.
Not many people will give up anything, much less everything. It will have to be enough that they can scream. The alternative is impermissible.
"Gee, rando anon on the internet, if you're so tough, why aren't you out there fighting now?"
Excellent question, self. Because in this fight, as it is today, I'm less than worthless. Anything I do to try to help would be a liability. This is one of the key aspects of Q: enjoy the show. You can't help until you can help, and you don't know when that might be. You don't know what that help might entail.
It may be that we just need to scream. That would be a relief.
