Politics Run Your Life. Stop Hiding from it!

in #politics6 years ago

Im frustrated folks. Reason being is because i hear people talk about 'I'm not into politics,' or 'I dont want to talk about this!' As is Ever!

WE HAVE PROBLEMS!! BIG PROBLEMS!! And they originate, from people not caring, or being to afraid of what comes from talking about it.

It comes from people BELIEVING that, 'since something does not affect me directly, its none of my business and i dont want to deal with it.'

This is where the term, 'privelaged,' comes into play. When people are 'Privelaged' it means that they have the 'privelage' of disconnecting from a problem, since it doesnt affect them directly.

This is why we have mass protests, why people are standing in the streets blocking cars, why infuriated black men and women are attacking people in their cars.

Since the 'privelaged,' choose to ignore the problems of those affected, the affected therefore turn to drastic measures to get recognition for their problems.

So long as we, as a nation, continue to ignore our own citizens problems, we will continue to see a fissure grow between our people, pushing us closer to the brink of civil war.

We must understand that EVERY CITIZEN. No matter what color, no matter what state, has ALL of the constitutional rights as you do.

Put yourself in their shoes and perhaps you can understand their frustration.

Our country is not as perfext as we would like to believe. Groups of people ARE being oppressed and put into a position of fight or flight and most are choosing to fight!

Respect that the U.S. constitution is effective for all people within our country. Not just the people that we like.
