evil
what you are doing is evil
at some point choosing conspiracy theories and disinformation over a readily available adequate-accuracy is choosing evil.
You are choosing evil.
That is evil.
I cannot wake you up in time.
You have let me down.
You have crushed my spirit.
You have told me that I am so worthless that my voice should no longer count.
Not just me — but pretty much everyone I’m close to.
We’re all so worthless that democracy should be taken from us.
And given to, well, actually, you must realize: it will be given to no one, it will just be killed.
What you’re doing is evil.
You don’t know it, but people rarely do.
What would you have me do?
And when we die, am I to be reconciled to your evil?
Am I to know you again as if you were just a victim of circumstances?
I can’t tell you how disappointed I am in you, in my country.
Everything I’d known was true and trustworthy has been proven to be a lie.
You were just pretending all along.
Just pretending to want to share this nation with me.
Just waiting for the chance to force yourself on everyone else.
I call it abuse.
It feels like abuse.
I call it crime.
I call it evil.
It smells, tastes, feels like the same boring old evil that always wins in the end, because people always betray each other sooner or later.
I didn’t betray you.
You betrayed me.
And I have no response.
I sit here and wait to die.
I give up.
What you are doing is evil.
You should stop.
You have really hurt me.
I did not think you would do this to me.
I wish I had never been born
I don’t want to live through this
What you are doing is world-historically evil
You have a clean conscious
But that does not mean it doesn’t count
It just means you are lying to yourself
Am I crazy?
I feel like I am in outer space
When I was a kid I remember my father saying that the Russians just say anything, just lie and then repeat it, and that works there
Not here of course
Oh?
Not here?
A man corrupts himself; he then corrupts the party he leads; what happens when that man and that party are given power over the nation?
You are serving political evil
It’s called political “evil” because when it rules, sooner or later it becomes the old-fashioned evil (people lose their all their money and security for telling the truth; people disappear for disagreeing; people’s bodies are squished for saying No to a criminal government)
We were supposed to be on the same team
We were supposed to say No to evil together — to at least have each other’s backs that much
But evil is learning that we’re not going to say No to evil; that it’s too much to ask of us
We are failures
We are jokes
We are evil
Well, friends, I have failed
That’s all
I thought I could help
But I was wrong
Now I will move to Spain, or maybe Portugal
Actually, how am I going to pay for that?
So I’m stuck here, waiting for the evil with the rest of you
But the evil is already here — we failed to say No to the evil; that was itself an evil
Why was I born?
To watch this vapid fool waltz in and commandeer the gears and levers of the most powerful nation in the world, while it’s so-called free citizens get chips on their laps and beer on their chins
To live through this
For what?
I remember being a kid and being told I lived in the greatest country in the world because here we were free to tell the truth and make our own way, we didn’t have to fear our government, and we all had refrigerators and access to libraries
Hmmm
