Tug-for-life, not to be confused with “Thug 4 life”
Our entire existence is a like a tug-of-war, that game where some pull one way and some pull the other way. All people of clear thinking, must pull until the flag is right down the middle. We must pull until there is a balance. It’s for our own good. The only thing we must remember is that people just want to be included- they want to belong. So it is critical that we are inclusive and are pulling in the right direction.
When the flag is down the middle, we will all win. When the flag is down the middle, there will be justice for all and not just for the privileged few. If we want peace, we will have to brace ourselves and pull for justice. It can be done. Some say it cannot be done. Mostly, its those people whose cup is full, the ones who are benefiting from the chaos.
We had to pull to get out of slavery. We had to pull for blacks and women to vote. We had to pull for workers rights, gay rights, immigrants rights, and the rights of those that are disabled. Today, it’s mental slavery. Some of our own have been mislead. The are pulling in the wrong direction, and some of them are strong.
Why is this?
Capitalists, and opportunists in union with “public servants” are lying to the public and causing them to act against their own self interest, and not even know it.
Imagine, that there are 10 of us living together. 8 of us are having fun, feasting and stomping our chest around the place, over and over, everyday. The other two are not having any fun and feel left out. They eventually will feel cheated. They will see the injustice, feel how unfair it is, they will feel like they don’t belong, and before you know it, one of the 8 will have a bad day. The rest of us, will not be able to sleep all because of our refusal to be inclusive.
As we are, the flag is way off center and it favors the greedy rich and powerful. Most of them have no interest in change, in fact, they worship individualism. Who knows, if we were them, maybe we would do the same.
So I say, inform yourself, make sure you are on the right side and pull.
One more thing, we should never forget, it was the capitalists who created slavery.
