People aren't responsible for what their parents or grandparents did. I'm native american. I know a lot of my people want this and want that and want to still blame people for shit that happened 100 years ago. I say shut the hell up about it and move on with your life. Yeah, our land was stolen, our way of life destroyed. But no one alive now had anything to do with it. Unless you can invent a time machine, let it go. No one's ever done anything to me. Well, except for a damn crokked computer store owner who I really would like to punish. Though not fatally. I don't want my land back, I don't want reparations, I don't want 40 acres and a mule, I don't want to harass white people, I have no motivation for any of that. Because no one who did anything is still alive.
I realize a few of the nazis from that era of germany are still alive. So blame them. Don't blame an entire country. I've been to Germany, it's a beautiful country with truly lovely and hospitable people. I've also had several friends over the years who were concentration camp survivors. They didn't blame the entire country, so why the hell should anyone else?
I'm so tired of senseless crap like this. The world is insane. I don't understand why, at this point in civilization, people still hurt and kill each other. But I certainly won't contribute to the insanity by throwing guilt around for something that didn't even affect me personally.
Though, you REALLY don't want to ask me how I feel about doctors lol.
Talent is God's gift to you. Using it is your gift to God.
