I have write about food, superstitions and negative ethnicity/racial bias without any favor or prejudice. So I will not be saying I told you so or saying what I have already said before. What I wish I was more loud about is friendship. One of the subtle casualties of injustice and inequality is genuine friendship.
Colonialism, slavery primed many for believe in nonexistent forces. On the face of it it appears a harmless practice. What I have realized is that in accordance to the Second Law of Thermodynamics, entropy increases. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find genuine people in any field.
From community, to business and even in the most hallowed institutions such as court system, international organizations and religious organizations, there is a severe lack of honesty.
That dishonesty is now affecting families. It might be one of the reasons why marriages are less stable, while depression and a general feeling of apathy being quite prevalent.
These are obvious outcomes of a capitalistic system that has ran amok. Our lives and institutions now mirror that exploitative system that considers sustainability as a nuisance.
There are obviously many other factors that we can add to the list. I am however fascinated by the fact that many politicians and religious leaders have offered false, nice-sounding, promises that many have fallen for and in the meantime neglected nurturing time-tested and proven benefits of viable and genuine friendship.
Save for one drunk and deluded Nigerian preacher I heard promising that he would go to China and deal with the virus, the fire-breathing power brokers are making very economical utterances which simply adds up to nothing but caution.
Here is a wonderful opportunity to be humans to be free again. Community and friendship time is here! Go forth and try it. There is none that is immune to this problem. The rich and the poor are equal in this matters. You need no more proof than the coronavirus and the over 100,000 deaths of relatively well of whites that is commonly known as the death of despair. Make friends and live, that is if you survive the death of the stupid economy. It's the economy, stupid.
