my favorite line "As I say, some people are traumatized by 6 ounces of racist microaggression, others pour it on their breakfast sausage like hot sauce." I wonder if the latter folks have stronger social networks? It's hard for one racist to taunt a crowd from its edges. And have any effect.
Good work. Life may be some kind of distillation process. So much of what we learn in school and from television is false, it amounts to indoctrination into a fictional reality. This disparity between the 'reality' we're presented with through culture modification and the 'reality' that remains in evident abundance all around us, is profound. It causes many people's psyches to crack like an eggshell. Or they become totally unreal people -- a sleepwalker: a robot-like person which only exists to respond to some stimuli being fed to them by their controllers. No creative charge. A dead battery.
Perhaps this is the reason we're here, in this place, to begin with? To search and find what is real in this land of the fake. To shed the unnecessary and the illusory until only what is real remains.

Well said, as always.
