Hate


Hate's not the same, for everyone
People show it, in different ways
directed at a group, a thing or a person
sometimes different on different days.

Is it genetics, or maybe the environment?
That attempts to create a hater
Less for the young, than for retirement
Is there really a hating common denominator?

I found an answer, I need to impart
Not being specific, but on the whole
The hate that can be found in one's heart
Is matched, by the fear in one's soul.

I don't understand....how hate survives itself.

At the start. It seems to offer some benefit.. releases frustration and anxiety..

But then.. I would think for most people it just gets tiring.... not just the hate.. but the frustration and anxiety.

I know it sounds like a lecture, or a philosophy.. but it isn't....it's about me..

I'm just tired of hating Trump.. I'm tired of transferring that hate to people, who can't see why I hate him....It's a core thing...Not the top layer of issues and politics, but the core of Pride, Integrity, Truth and Idealism.. Don't hate them.. but "PITI"....those who don't know it.. so they can't see it...

I do hate the fact it consumes me...It's just not what life's about....I'm too damn old and it's too damn tiring...

It's a double edge sword.. to want to know what different people think, and how they think...So you can better know yourself...And then to figure out, you'd be better off, if you didn't know. That's where I am at Now....
I can't kill all the cockroaches.. Yet... I can't figure out.... how I'm suppose to live with them.
I always knew..that our lives are fragile, based on a few known truths. How quickly a life can be destroyed when those truths are challenged.....things like love, family, dreams, country, idealism, God and TRUTH..... whatever they may be you..they allow you to "hold it together".. make your life meaningful ...
Instead of the simplicity of evolution..the realities of life...A life.. like the cattle, being brought to slaughter house...and the meaninglessness of those realities.

So, yes, I'm trying to re-group.. Thank you for understanding...

People here don't want to think.. they want to make it about politics..
Because We believe in some Liberal Idea.. especially the empathy and compassionate ones.. that , that is reason we hate Trump... BUT they hate Hillary or Obama.. because they think in terms of political hate

They think I have a choice in hating Trump.. I don't have a choice.

It's because I don't have a choice.. that makes it so unbelievable..
Like I have to question why I don't have a choice? They fail to see how it is for me... They think I want to convince them to hate Trump too... I don't want to convince them.... I can't convince people of what the obvious is. But people challenge what I think is obvious. MY trying to see how they think.. reflects, and challenges on how I think.. I just can't accept any alternatives anymore about Trump...I can't accept the lies....... the lies he tells,, and the lies people tell themselves.

I'm tired of it.....I've made my decision..that I, I , I, I have NO OTHER CHOICE.....

The destruction of my idealism.. is about people... Americans, an Americanism.....
.I just could never believe Americans can accept the lying to themselves, like they have. that people can't challenge themselves...that people can't see alternatives...

It's shattered my idealism, about America.. That is a greater loss... than anything Trump has done.

I hear politicians talk.. and I say to myself .. how can say that? How can they believe that..... It just doesn't conform to the truth, and to what is justice, and what is fair..but they say it.. Not in Russia, but here in America.. and my idealism is shattered.

I mean...

Tax cuts for billionaires

Arm teachers

Healthcare

food stamps

immigration and especially DACA's

trickle down economics

Russian interference with elections.

Protecting the President. From the truth

America First

build a wall..

getting rid of safety nets, and regulations that protect the public

NR%A, lobbies, gun control ...That someone's American rights Trump American Lives... and American profits trump American equality and justice

That when everything you say is about people of a certain color..and then say.... that color has nothing to do with it..

that we measure people by their sexual orientation.... And sexual orientation becomes POLITICAL? WTF?

that the life of an unborn child is political? but healthcare or a free lunch in schools is an entitlement.. that the children who get , don't deserve it.

That WE are "One Nation Under God" and I have to wonder how far is under God, before we find ourselves in HELL

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace,

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

I have no intention of throwing out the baby with the dirty bath water...
But the dirty bathwater has GOT TO GO
I can dream AND accept reality
I can dream AND I can hope
I can dream AND I can compromise
I can dream AND think of a better tomorrow
I can dream AND know that tomorrow never comes... and I will always have to live for TODAY.

Doing right.. is not about doing what's RIGHT....It's about.. doing..and doing what's best..what's honest..what's fair, and what is respectful.. Armed with the power of both the heart and mind.
I have two arms to hold on with, I have two hands to extend...I don't wish to live just Right handed, or only armed with just the RIGHT.. Whether ones is left handed or right handed.. they are equal partners, yet singularly they become unarmed, and clenched fists. beating up on their own heart and mind. Working together is the only way, they can hold on....the only way they can extend their hands to the world...Yes.... I am a dreamer.

Speaking of "Imagine"

And where the fault lies in the dream...
Well ,there are certainly things i don't know.. but there are thing I know...

There's is plenty of blame to go around...But there's something I know.. about justification, about "tit for tat", about prejudice.....that's one armed and one-sided.

That simply must have their way.... never give in, never give up, and never to be used, but do the using....
The arm of righteousness.. that is the devils hand-i-work.

Those that will never, under any terms but their own..... "Give Peace a Chance"

"Let me tell you now
Ev'rybody's talking 'bout
Revolution, evolution, masturbation, flagellation, regulation, integrations
Meditations, United Nations, congratulations
All we are saying is give peace a chance
All we are saying is give peace a chance"

There is a deep, ingrained disingenuousness in Trump and all those he gathers around him.......a flagrant in-your-face falseness that dares anyone to challenge them, because Trump has already established a fantastical,corrupt reality that enough people have accepted as their preferred reality......you can just make it up as you go along.......Trump has enough power to keep it alive.....It's a monster.......The monster is what you hate.........The Gorgon borne out of Celebrity,Riches , Fantasy and Distraction........

I see the NYT has printed a whole page of Trump lies........But that's probably just preaching to the choir at this point......
