People are too useless and weak to be in touch with what's really eating them up inside.. so they talk about race, they talk about gender, sexual orientation, religion, government, economy & class, conservatism, liberalism, and more, and these things become easier-to-talk-about scapegoats in which they subconsciously see some aspect of their own repressed vulnerabilities or their own repressed guilt playing out in.
Perhaps more fittingly, maybe these things serve as the perfect distraction so we can go on forever in this psycho world with no real deep understanding.
And no matter what happens, nothing will ever change, because the underlying power struggle itself is not being addressed. Just the form. So they get everyone to side on one topic, one particular superficial exclusion, and somewhere else someone else just gets pushed out, because everyone was hung up on a particular form. And as human beings, our vision - our awareness - is incredibly narrow.. we focus on one thing, we forget another.
Is the emptiness too horrible to look at directly?
