The Roe v. Wade reversal is ripping the Democratic party apart. At least, that's the overall impression I'm getting on the internet. I don't have anything to say that could fix this. All I have are feelings. Rage, sadness, despair. A voice that says it doesn't matter if the Republicans lose, no one is coming out of this a victor.
I don't think we should put aside our differences and get along. That's not what seeing the Infinite is about. My goal for us isn't world peace, it's a world we're all willing and able to live in. Not a world free of conflict, but a world free of the evil, poisonous hate that's killing us slowly.
If we want a world where we're happy, than that's the world I'll aim to help create. But I think most of us want more than just a world where we're happy all the time. We want a world where our experiences have meaning, where what we say matters, where our voices are heard. We don't have that world, and our leaders are unwilling and incapable of creating that world for us. It's not that they don't have a template for that world. Most of them believe in at least one god after all. All they are willing to focus on is this idea that if we all work together, the perfect world will build itself. How can we possibly collaborate when we don't know what our common goal is?
