the age of the american sociopath: ‘nothing else matters but them and their gratification’

The world is di­vid­ed now into peo­ple that be­lieve in so­ci­ety – and peo­ple that don’t, who be­lieve in some­thing more like trib­al­ism, Dar­win­ism, au­thor­i­tar­i­an­ism, hate, vi­o­lence, and rage. That they should be supreme, above all oth­ers, that they are the cen­ter of the world, that no­body else and noth­ing else mat­ters but them and their grat­i­fi­ca­tion. There is a kind of deep so­cial ni­hilism at work in the world to­day – a kind of bit­ter dis­be­lief that any kind of ‘we’ ex­ists. And from this hos­til­i­ty, this en­mi­ty, comes a surg­ing ag­gres­sion, bit­ter­ness, rage, an­i­mus – that’s tear­ing the world apart to­day, knock­ing back to tur­bo-charged regress. And it is this force at work in Britain and America’s re­spons­es to Coronavirus.”
Umair Haque, How Free­dom Turned So­cio­path­ic in America

 

Part of my dai­ly sad­ness lies in the fact that so­ciopaths and their dan­ger­ous be­hav­iors are be­ing am­pli­fied by a sociopath/narcissistic President.

The un­der­ly­ing root of this ug­li­ness stems from the fact that we have nev­er ful­ly faced, or to that end healed the lega­cies of a sys­tem­at­ic sociopathic/racist foun­da­tion that this coun­try was built upon.

There­fore, we can be dis­gust­ed and try to turn our faces away in some type of shame but none of us with any con­nec­tion to our sor­did col­lec­tive his­to­ry should be sur­prised in any­way of what we are wit­ness­ing now.

Any White per­son who claims to be anti-op­pres­sion should be ab­solute­ly up in arms and us­ing the above (and be­low) un­der­stand­ing to fi­nal­ly fa­cil­i­tate the shifts in our na­tion that we so des­per­ate­ly need:

White folks: You need to take re­spon­si­bil­i­ty for Your col­lec­tive Karens and Michaels.

We won’t and can’t do the job that You need to be do­ing right now – You need to col­lec­tive­ly col­lect Your sib­lings, NOW!
