Rocky_raccoon, you might feel better if you spend enough time learning about all of the negative things that bother you. It's usually like a bell curve. If you don't know anything, then it's unsettling, and then once you start learning and looking into stuff, it really gets unsettling the more you find out, but after you have looked enough into everything, then it gets much easier to not be so uneasy about everything going on. For one, it forces you to make up your mind and make the hard judgements to settle how you feel about a thing. And for another, you realize that allot of it is just how it's always been, or allot of it is bullshit that is just being made up or spun into something that it really isn't. But once you know enough to be able to make a judgement on something, and feel confident in where you stand on an issue, based on actually understanding all aspects and points of view, then you are able to make peace with it. It's different than being ignorant, or indifferent. It's actually feeling comfort in mastering the problem in your own understanding. Not saying you don't do that already, but the world can be ugly until you are able to find a way to come to terms with it through seeing the whole picture and forming your own opinions on it. Even if you come to the decision to drop the bombs, at least you will feel like you have a plan and control over how to respond, rather than just feeling helpless and afraid, and confused or unsure. But that was just a side note. What I came to say was, my younger brother used to be extremely racist. I wasn't around so I don't know what influence he had to get that way and wasn't aware he felt that way. But he told me about it later when we got back in touch. It's strange, because no one in my family is racist, and we were taught not to be, plus my grandma would give us black baby dolls and stuff like that, just to teach us not to be. But somehow he ended up extremely racist, as I've been told, and he said psychedelics completely changed him. Unfortunately, he is now, anti racist just as bad, and has been known to knock more than one person out for acting racist in his company. So, I guess that's not too good ether, but what can you do. -------------------- Just take um like you get um. Those ephemeral spasms of infinity, in suspended animation, born across a boundless ether of existential misery aloft a revelry (of awe) for the abhorrently sublime.
