RE: The Desperation for Change and the Desire to Happen 'NOW'
No one wanted to question because rising up led to death and if you're (un)lucky, years-worth of suffering for you and your family.
Welcome to Steemit. Where rising up against the powerful rich who abuse their power can get your account killed to negative Rep.
But it's done to survive in the now because if you dont get through today, then you dont have a next day.
Yeah. And as long as people don't communicate and organize to stop it, it will never be ended by your people. SO like you say...
falling all over ourselves to serve new masters.
for survival..
Thanks for the feedback, as usual ;)
That made me shudder. I recently saw a flag war for the first time (a friend was the recipient) and it's not reassuring. It gives the vibe that you can be targeted anytime and all your hard work would go down the drain just because someone doesn't like you.
There are groups who rise up. Spanish rule wasn't always absolute and it didn't happen automatically. Same goes with the rest of the conquerors. But the number of people with balls dwindled down with every change in master. People got tired of fighting and figured if they keep their heads low, the master would move on to kick another slave. But then again, guerilla warfare is still happening here so I suppose not everyone is rolling over and showing their bellies.
You make awesome articles. How can one NOT give a feedback?
