Today I am annoyed. Yes, annoyed! I have been watching people for the past few months and I am ashamed of them. Middle class Caucasian Americans claiming to know the struggles of the African American people during Martin Luther King Jr. month. Americans spouting love and support for the Pagan Irish people on St Patrick's Day by vowing never to wear green on this day. As if an American would know how a Pagan Irish person feels about it themselves. Why would they exclude all the Christian Irish people? Claiming all kinds of support for our troops on Dec 7th and yet not a single one of them know what happened on that day so many years ago. Guh!
What a bunch of hypocrites! I am so sick and tired of being included in this moronic group of people. I am an American middle class Caucasian female. I haven't a clue about the plight of anyone other than myself. I don't pretend to support what might be popular that day. I am far to busy trying to support myself and my own ideas. Don't get me wrong. I would love to support everything I believe is the right thing to support but I am not going to be fake and ignorant about what and who I am supporting just because its the trend of the day.
These are the things I support:
Equality
Love
Education
With these 3 things I believe life would be so much better. Call me idealistic. Sure, I am a dreamer. So was Einstein and Da Vinci. They weren't wrong.
I don't know what else to say. I am disillusioned.
