Part Two: Society
Well, society is a general topic but I’m talking about things like the government, politics, human rights, the law, and pretty general things that are well, ABSOLUTELY AWFUL
Let’s start off with the government. Ah, yes, our favorite. We can always rely on big daddy government to help us sort our world and fight our wars and sure, they take our money once and awhile but it must be for a good reason, right? Sometimes but most of the time, no.
The government most of the time is either 1. Lying or 2. Lying even more. Especially the one person we decided to be in power. The President. The president is what we think to be the highest in power which is not really true. There are different things put in place to keep one person from getting too much power.
The government is also the one who enforces the laws they create. They’re basically gods with a limit. There’s the FBI, the military, and the police who they all have under control like a puppet on a string. The point is, the government has a lot of power and money and they fund wars which just cause more violence instead of helping the homeless and on the street. I know the government needs the money for everything important and all.
I think the government is a bunch of powerful people controlling their county, laughing while doing it. I think about all the homeless people and then the government and I think the government should just say they don’t care about them at this point since they don’t bother to help them, why bother to lie? It’s obvious you don’t care. Let’s go back to the president. OH MY GOD.
People I’m begging you. STOP electing senile old men to run our country. Donald Trump, Joe Biden, and literally most other presidents already have wrinkles on their face when we elect them. Isn’t the age for election 35? Donald Trump and Joe Biden are 77 and 81 years old respectively.
Why are the two most recent presidents so old? For all we know they could just clock out anytime while they’re elected. I’m tired of all these oldies running the country. And specifically Biden and Trump. I’ll say this right now.
The ONLY reason Biden is elected right now is because how bad Trump messed up last he was elected. That is literally the only reason. I absolutely do not think Biden is the next step to make America great again. And on the topic of presidents, why aren’t there any female presidents yet? I would expect and few but none at all? Wouldn’t there be a ton of women trying to take the title of the first female president? They would go down in history. And Kamala Harris being vice president is a step but the staircase has 2.5 million steps. And we’re on step 100.
Politics. They’re all liars and power hunger monsters. I don’t know much about politics but most people say they suck. One thing I’ll just squeeze in here is war. Did you know that some places kidnap kids to fight in wars for them? The inhumanity in these people is crazy.
And there are a lot of wars which are about land and properties. It’s like your neighbor either telling you to get off their lawn, or saying your lawn is theirs. A very well known one is Ukraine and Russia. Yeah you know Russia? A pretty big guy at the top of the map. Well, he claims that Ukraine is his child but Ukraine is claiming that he’s adopted and wants to mature and have a new family. Russia didn’t like that and is trying to resort to discipline to teach Ukraine a lesson. I know I made that sound like a joke but it’s not. It’s pretty serious and Russia is just mad. Ukraine is trying to be independent and Russia is mad they’re losing their “land”. Poor Ukraine.
Moving on, there was this petty war (I think) that happened. Imagine this. You’re America, Yay! You have a bunch of land. Again, yay! But what’s this? You look up ahead and see this big, juicy, absolutely majestic piece of land. You must have it. But the land you’re looking at is Canada. They’re not gonna let you have it. Awww.
But you must decide on a border. After a few arguments and backs and forths, you decide on a straight line. Now you have more land! As it should be because it’s your god given right. But there’s a problem.
There are islands that have no rule about who owns it. And of course, Canada wants it and so do you. After a few settling, animal threatening, pig shooting, and more, people went at it. Do you see my point? Just for a small piece of land, you were about to start a full on war.
That’s really petty. There are a lot of other wars like the punic war, the wars with Napoleon, and the wars in Japan but that would take 9 or so paragraphs to write. Also, side mention, the police aren’t as reliable as you think. They went to this old woman’s house where she and her caretaker were. And she said she was in danger because he threatened to kill her.
All they did was joke and complimented him about his gun collection. Then they left even though she begged them not to. She got murdered a few hours later. Truly sad. Tis is why law may be a nay.
Next is human rights. A lot of countries have different human rights or none at all. (Hi North Korea) All humans should have human rights. That’s a fact. But some countries don’t know what human rights are apparently since they act like some people don’t have them.
I feel bad for those people who live in one of those countries who just do the stupidest things. And that leads me up to laws. Most laws are reasonable like murder, stealing, arson, and terrorist attacks are absolutely illegal and will get you in prison. I’m confused about the sentences though. I see sometimes that murder lands you a few years like about 10 but others get about 20.
I know this has something to do with how you plead and how you act in court and the details of the crime but what do I know? I’m not a judge. Overall, the way we built this world is a bit weird and unstable. It’s not perfect but it’s keeping us alive.
