why are we all still living our lives in this insane/cruel world and pretending that nothing is wrong?

Why do people think it's o.k. to have/allow a governing body (of people) govern us if we aren't harming anyone? I thought I was a grown *** woman ( 31 yrs. old) I don't need a government of any country to tell me what I can and can't do. Especially, with all the insane things in this world that are allowed. How long will we all continue to live this rat race of a life, this way? Please excuse the catorgory that was chosen for my last question, I'm not too familiar with this whole yahoo q&a comments thing just yet.

    We are forced into this situation, it's a setup, and there is no easy way out. Hell is real, people are mostly evil, and everything is buIIshit. I have nothing else I can give to you. If I knew a real way out, I'd take it. The closest thing I can come up with is convincing people not to have anymore kids. But they'll keep doing it. And the ones who have the most kids will be the stupid and/or poor. It just gets better and better. The disillusioned and intelligent get to financially support the ignorant and blissful crowd while they do things like paint signs with quotation marks as a form of underlining, eat themselves into zoo animals, and shout illogical chants at political rallies in every effort to beat women back down. I don't know which is worse, the depressed people who acknowledge it and make us worse, or the oblivious cheery people who honestly could not logically reason their way out of a cardboard box.

    The reasoning for this lies in memetics. Memetics is a new science that studies memes, which are viruses that attack the minds of people. Memes are not like regular viruses. Memes are thoughts or ideas that travel from one mind to another. They can be good, bad, or harmless. For example, if I start humming Beethoveen's third symphony and someone else heard it, they might start humming it later as well. Even if they don't, chances are that it's stuck in their head.

    Hate breeds hate, they say, and they are right. Memes of hate are spreading all over the world and causing chaos. We must put an end to this as soon as possible.

    The world needs order, everyones idea of perfect is different, no one system will ever work, you may know what is just and what is fair and feel capable to make those choices for yourself but not everybody is that way. I am not pretending that nothing is wrong int he world, nor am I going to stress over things I have no power over. peace and love.

    You are an "I" and never a WE. Own up to it and get a POSITIVE attitude instead of the negative one you are showing.
