A short discussion of humanity.
It’s a funny old world - quite upsetting some of the time. We live in a country where people passing through are arrested on behalf of a country they’ve not been to recently because of something they wrote on the another in a country somewhere else. Sure, he’s an objectionable chap, but any worse than the people here?
It always astounds me the ability of local newsreaders in particular to move from the profoundly distressing to the distinctly frothy in one fell segue, and I don’t think it’s their fault, but more an indictment on the state of our own humanity, that any of us (and any of us are capable) can even follow that segue, that we can watch the news unaffected, or exhort a seventeen-year-old to jump to his death.
