How can we unleash barbarism on other human beings? On our planet?
I think of Afghan mothers, fathers, their children. What can they say to their children? How can they promise tranquility, hope, a future, security? How can they say, "Everything will be alright?" How can anything ever be alright again?
How can it be alright for us? How can anything be alright when the U.S. is the greatest purveyor of enduring savagery?
I want to scream. I want to scream. To separate from this. This government, this country.
The world shouldn't have to suffer one more day of American exceptionalism.
I clear the table, put the dishes in the sink, stare at the water running into the drain. Drain the swamp.
I want to scream.
