The vigor with which you stated your perspective gave me chills at a few points, amazing post! It's strange to think that globally we all really have one problem- the greed of those that hold resources, and the division that prevents people from joining together effectively against that. Gaslighting tactics and media manipulation combine into a brutal force almost everywhere it seems, tricking people into cementing their own suffering. My heart aches for the circumstances you outlined here, your positive and pragmatic approach is incredibly admirable.
