I’ve been here too long

This is why multiculturalism doesn't work unfortunately. It might appear like it's working because the money hasn't run out yet. Once the welfare state runs out of money its goin to be a scary situation. Socialist policies cannot be sustained longterm because they ignore reality and human nature.There is nothing more disheartening than watching the same cycles of hatred and oppression repeat themselves over and over, and within your own lifetime no less.
Since moving to the south, it's like I have a front-row seat: people hating on each other over skin color, sexual orientation, political viewpoints. It's so tedious and utterly cretinous. We've already been through this countless times in generations past, and yet we seem to make absolutely no progress as a society, it's still the same old bullshit.
I was at the movies the other week, watching some godawful Hollywood garbage (really want those 90 minutes back). Anyway, every time a white person was killed, it was met with cheering and hollering by the black moviegoers around me. I mean it's just a film, but still, what sort of fucking troglodyte does that?
Then it occurred to me - it can never end. A dominant group oppresses a minority, that minority becomes embittered and equally toxic in return. People are incapable of being magnanimous because the hate is always there on a subconscious level, and their own pain and bad experiences spur their feelings of vengeance. The xenophobia and mistrust is instinctual and infectious, so it's not something that can be eradicated.
As bad as that is, I also recognize that the PC thought police is no solution either because I realize on some level that human expression should ideally not be constrained. Long story short - there are no good solutions. I don't think we can ever build a functional and harmonious world as long as we're stuck with such primitive mindsets.
Whose bright idea was it to create talking, hate-filled apes capable of nuclear war and utterly incapable of basic, inherent kindness? Sounds like a cosmic joke to me.
