We Should Stop Pretending
So here we are today, living in a world that feels both depressing and deeply disturbing. Nearly every part of this planet looks like it is falling apart. The political state of the world is a disaster. Migration is mishandled. Adaptation is ignored. Every country seems locked in the same tired fight. Left versus right. Conservatives versus liberals. Extreme selfishness clashing with extreme performative selflessness.
Everyone is consumed by agendas. Greed. Envy. Money. Power.
And if anyone thinks this is normal, they are delusional.
Where are the good people?
Where are the sensible ones?
Looking back at history, humans have always treated other humans like garbage. In many cases, worse than animals. You do not even have to look that far back to see how cruel and evil we can be to each other, to other species, and to the planet itself.
What Makes Today Worse is That We Know Better.
We live in a world of abundance. Enough food. Enough resources. Enough knowledge. Yet people still hoard, exploit, and dominate as if everything belongs to them. The western mindset reduces life to stocks, markets, investments, money, and scams, all neatly wrapped in layers of lies.
We are told this is progress.
It does not feel like progress.
The world today may genuinely be the worst version of itself. Yes, history is filled with war and brutality. We know what humans did during World Wars. We know what we created. But today feels different. The lies are constant. The manipulation is polished. The damage is normalized.
All of this to gain control over things we cannot take with us.
We are all going to die. Every single one of us leaves this planet with nothing. And yet we are obsessed with taking everything while we are here.
I am not against people being rich. I am against people being careless. My family has been well off, and we have also been broke, not knowing where the next meal would come from. The answer is not endless handouts. The answer is basic decency.
Treat people better.
Treat resources better.
Stop wasting everything.
The Freaking Government!
Governments are a major part of the problem. Tax money is burned on useless programs while real problems are ignored. Healthcare could be better. Housing could be better. Food could be better. This applies to Canada, America, and nearly every country pretending to be functional.
People strike for better wages while others have nothing to eat. None of this would be necessary if money was spent wisely in the first place.
This is not complicated.
Simple-minded
Yes, I am being simple-minded. That is the point.
We already know what is wrong. Governments know what is written on paper. They just refuse to act because business interests come first. Big food companies are allowed to poison people with chemicals and colouring that serve no purpose. If we removed that garbage alone, healthcare costs would drop. People would be healthier. Less money would be wasted. More people could actually be helped.
Instead, we argue about electric cars versus gas cars. We pass legislation that makes no sense. We talk about global warming while ignoring decades of corruption and theft that made the problem worse in the first place.
Species are going extinct because of overfishing and resource extraction that we do not need. It happens because it makes money for shareholders. I am not against business. I am against waste.
What truly saddens me is the mindset of people today. Truth is blurred by lies. Lies are buried under fake news and real news until nothing means anything anymore. Everyone has an agenda. Nobody listens.
I am not religious. But at this point, the only honest ending is this.
God help us all.
