From the mind of critic: “If propaganda, hate and division only seem to get worse, does blinding ourselves fuel the fire? Do we internalize “it is what it is” as a coping mechanism, because if we internalized the words for what they actually were, we wouldn’t be able to function? Is that how the targets feel, unable to function because of internalization? Does ignoring what hurts us, give propaganda spewers what they always wanted? Does standing up for what’s right, and pointing out what’s wrong, give propaganda spewers what they’ve always dread? The darkness we’re currently and collectively experiencing, is part ignorance, part laziness and part fascination with “what aboutism”, but most importantly fear of the other. We can let fear run our lives, or we can use it to accomplish what we didn’t think possible. This fear can cause us to see only dark, when dark only holds power over us because we aren’t willing or able to see the infinite light that has always been there. If we want to stop fearing the other, we must stop fearing ourselves. Darkness isn’t an illusion it’s a veil, while light isn’t an illusion either it’s a window. Finding out how to cope is necessary for survival, but don’t we want to more than just survive? When we realize power is birthed from us, we see what’s needed to overcome the hate and division that’s holding our species back from evolving.”
