I could handle anger and fear, it's the insatiable greed and cartoonishly blind worship of the greedy that makes me find this place intolerable and beyond hope. Our country literally celebrates inequality. We aren't a society, we're a handful of winners manipulating a couple hundred million losers into beating each other to death over scraps and false promises for further private profit.

Most of our hatred and fear flows out of the intentional division that having greed as our core cultural value stokes. Jealousy, schadenfreude, sociopathy, anymous, division, distrust, on and on. All in the name of people who already have embarrassing levels of wealth acquiring more. always more.

It's like watching someone who weighs 700 pounds scooter his 20th plate from a private buffet to his table, surrounded by malnourished onlookers who wish they were him and dream of being so morbidly obese that they too require a scooter to ambulate. It's disgusting on every side, it's painful to watch, it's absurd, and yet it's what is considered rational here.
