myata Posted October 30, 2024 Report Posted October 30, 2024 I will not try to point to or condemn anyone here, rather observe. In a few short decades since the last war, where nothing was assured and guaranteed (but we forgot) we got used to consumer, shopping mall understanding and attitude to politics democracy itself. Push the button here, sigh there and expect the result in the mail. But nothing says anywhere that it's bound to work this way and would work forever. That we will be able to sign off the responsibility, forward all the important choices to someone else somewhere and still enjoy a prosperous free democratic society. Maybe it doesn't work that way. What if the reason and responsibility of the citizens is the very basis and foundation of democracy? What if they cannot be shrugged away, signed off and avoided in any other way? And so, all is before our eyes and everyone has a choice to make. Not celebrities, not the papers for us: I, me, and everyone of us, based on their memory, reason, integrity and principles. There are times in history when this responsibility of a citizen simply cannot be avoided. And so, not WP. Nowhere to point to. Us, we, I and you and he and she. No excuses and distractions at this point in history. We have a choice to make and it will determine our path forward, from here. That much, we know.
