A Message to the 1% and Those Who Support Them Tacitly

Doing a case study on Apartheid South Africa. Looking at the present situation in this country, I'd say this is probably one of the closest models that we can have towards moving forward from the conflict that's beginning to mount between the haves and the have nots.

I see a great change coming to this country, whether people like it or not.

And it would be best that we all take steps now to address these issues effectively and for the sake of the society/country as a whole now, lest we all get swept up into a very potentially messy affair indeed that will benefit no one. Least of all, the people who have.

I get that you want to live the high life, or you want to live in individual freedom from the government. The high life is possible, but the individual freedom in the ways that you understand it is not possible. You're still connected to the rest of the world, and you're still dependent upon it, as much as it is dependent upon you doing your part within it, for it.

You can continue to maintain your own views on the individual/collective debate.

But you're the ones who are going to be burned by it in demonstrable and tangible ways if you continue to act and behave in the ways that you do.

It's only in your brain that it works otherwise.

That sad, isolated, oblivious and lonely brain of yours.

And you never need to take my word for it.

Think about it.
