Everyday I remain in this world I feel more and more sick of myself.
In our lives, we meet all sorts of people sprouting crap-- about how success defines a person, about how marks are the end all and be all, about how studying is our number one priority, about how our image remaining as pristine and clear as ever is more than vital, about doing evreything they tell you otherwise you can't be promoted to the next level.
Like I said, lots of crap that pour out of rivets and springs that lie embedded in the rock face.
And everytime I sit at my desk I think how stupid this is, and about how we're wasting our time; our lives; our childhood.
You know something else I hate? Or rather, the number one thing that I hate?
The fact that everything we do is for marks. Even the things like community service. They make it seem that you have to do it, otherwise you won't get bronze for NYAA and go to the school across the road. They make it so that it becomes a chore, an extra burden in your already 100000-tonned schoolbag. They make it sound like you have to find a community service, and fit it around your hectic schedule.
Well now I see something in clearity, much more than before. And I have one thing to say, whether it offends or not.
What the fuck are we doing?
Elie Wiesel demonstrates and dictates to us so clearly the horror of concentration camps. How he watched his father die before him, and was almost glad for his death, to ease his burden in the camps. He narrates how he saw a son abandon his father.
Has HItler made monsters of us all?
Of course he has. Not a single spark of humanity has been spared -- the nazis, his supporters, the victims, and worst of all, those indifferent.
The presidents, even the Pope, who could have destroyed and put an end to such suffering like a dam in a river.
Everyone else.
While6 million people were tortured, killed, exterminated, treated like animals, because animals, the world sat back and watched, pretending that it was just a horro flick, and that after 3 hours, it would end.
You would think that that was past.
Well, you'd be wrong.
We're doing the exact same thing now.
Ignoring those who are suffering, who are dying, who have skeletons for playmates and corpses for buddies.
But what makes this all worse?
We can't do anything about it.
We're soupposed to be the hope of the future.
We're a damn hell dead hope. Screwed up hope. Misplaced hope.
And unless we stand up, fight back and say something, nothing's going to change.
Holocast no #2.
Good job, Hitler.
I'm still selfish as ever. I know I should help, but how can I? How can I stem a flowing tide? But wait, even more importatntly, do I want to? Do I want to risk a 'good education'? A good life? Adults' and teachers' scorn? Rejection? Struck out as an outcast?
Because if I can't, and everyone else reading this can't, then you've just won, Fuhrer.
You swore to rid the Jews, a dirty race.
You've done more.
You've rid humanity.
