DYSPEPSIA GENERATION

We have seen the future, and it sucks.

There’s something profoundly askew in the souls of the people who feel compelled to tear down the posters of kidnapped children. I’ve been watching these for weeks now, it seems, and every day, a new one, a new person, a new flat-aspect person with dead eyes or, on occasion, sparky ire for anyone who DOES NOT UNDERSTAND that putting up the images of kidnapped children is NAZI PROPAGANDA. Even after a fortnight of people getting filmed and ID’d, they’re still taking them down. Because other people are still putting them up. Why not? The fliers are like flypaper.

As many have noted, some seem to confront shame for the first time in their adult lives, and they’re like dogs who have a mouthful of something unfamiliar and do not know how to proceed.
