Is it self-righteous to talk about systemic discrimination?
Is it entitled to demand a payment that is high enough to pay rent and rise a child?
Is it demanding to protest because ones own classmates and friends get threatened to be deported?
How can I be silent when I live in a country…
… that is obssed with destroying cultures since no time has passed since 1904–1908; 1915 or 1941–1945?
… that releves in continuing turning the Mediterranean Sea into a mass grave?
… that has a chancellor, who never worked a single day of his life, but wants to reimplement the 50 hours work week?
… that loves its dead jews, but not the ones who are alive?
… that hates its youth so much that warfare is once again normalized as a valid option?
… in which living is the most expensive hobby?
… in which children under 18 are the biggest minority nobody listens to?
… in which it is just a matter of time before medical assisted suicide is allowed by law to kill people who are to exepensive for the state?
But you can’t change anything anyway, can you? Why get upset? Concentrate on the things you can change…
What things can I change?
What soya yoghurt do I buy while billionaires blast thousands of tonnes of CO2 into the air with their private jets and yachts?
Yes, the youth are screaming. Marginalised people are screaming. We are screaming.
We also scream for those whose voices are not heard or who are denied the right to a voice beforehand.
They will continue to say:
Your rage about the people who hurt and wronged you is valid, but don’t act on it…
Your anxiety about your potential lost future is valid, but don’t act on it…
Your grief about loosing your friend is valid, but don’t act on it…
But what if I don’t want to make the world a better place anymore?
What if the chance for building a better world is long lost?
What if I want to thrive in the act of breaking a bunch of noses?
What if I need to see the 1% burn like they make the planet burn every day?
Well-meaning intellectuals support the youth, who have other plans than war…
I pause and think for seconds and then minutes? Do I have other plans besides war? Do I even have a future in this country? Because the politics of this country make it clear that it doesn’t want a future for its young people. It doesn’t even want to organise the retirement of people who have worked their whole lives for this country.
Why convert the phrase of passive resistance I would rather not to an active one?
Yes, I have two wolves in me. Both are afraid. And while one of them whispers in costant repition: I shall not hate the others one is gnraling and showing its teeth. because this is the the only thing it can do.
Why not set the world literally on fire because this world is one fire anyway? Better an end with horror than horror without end.
But desprite the gnarling, the rage, the grief, the exhaution of simple existing in this world the wolve(s) won’t bite.
Why?
I don’t know? There are enough reasons for it.
But they stay put.
And. I. Hate. Every. Second. Of. It.
