Thsi whole planet has got mental health issues and I don’t know how the fuck we even start resolving that shit.
It’s not at all the whole planet, but just the people in violent control and those who support them.
When I look at history, it seems the only times that the violence has calmed down are the periods following some immense, extended, extreme violence, to the point that everyone left living is sick and tired of it and says “no more”.
And that… that is deeply frightening in the present context.
It’s been 80 years since the last round of immense, extended, extreme violence. Those who remember and their children have died, even their grandchildren are old. Here we go again…
What’s the famous quote? “Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”
I think there is a certain accuracy to that statement, but I feel it also fails to recognize the human element involved. We know history now. The average person today knows far more than anyone in the past knew about history ever and yet … We continue to make the same mistakes as a species.
Some people just want to make change regardless of direction. We feel restless when things are going too well for too long. Even if it’s bad change we seek change regardless.
So that’s why purge.
