One track minds (#1952)

Too  many out there are all about blaming others for things that happen, while never doing anything themselves to try and improve life around them. It is sad to watch someone constantly ragging on others while doing not one thing themselves. It must be nice to just sit back and point fingers and call names while having nothing to show for it. Somehow some sense of satisfaction must fill them since they are relentless in their actions to tear down others. I remember as a child learning that even a bad idea can be improved upon if everyone chipped in with constructive solutions to difficult problems. It is not like some of us just want to fix the world the way we see it, we are just trying to fix the world as best we can and if someone has a better idea at how to do that I am all for it. It is the ones who won't contribute an idea to improve things but would rather pick apart others' ideas as nonsensical. I can barely contain my humor and rage, wide spectrum of emotions, when these folks enter into the circumstance at the time. They are quick to tell me all sorts of demagoguery as a way to avoid contributing something positive and when asked to contribute something positive instead they ignore my plea and instead revert to pejoratives. Everything must stay the same for them or actually even get worse to satisfy them. They have a demented sense of privilege and/or advantage that they are unwilling to let go. Somehow these one track mind souls have been inculcated with the idea that some are more worthy than others based upon factors outside merit. I continue to suggest positive policies that actually would benefit them but they continue to insist I am some kind of anti-American loving socialist. What that tells me is that nothing that I can say to help them come out of their perpetual poverty and lack of education will ever sink in unless they somehow realize that life isn't meant to be a punishment, it is meant to be a caring curious adventure.
