Profiling isn't the solution... It's the problem. It isn't what's right with the world... It's what's wrong with it. It isn't what makes us good or what allows us to act or treat people better... It makes us treat people worse.
Even some people I thought were friends of mine appear so brainwashed from drinking the punch about the likes of me and certain others that they need to be watered twice a day with that punch in order to maintain the brainwashing that they think is their most positive quality but is actually their most negative. They think this because they were so deprived of certain true love in that way that they are taking what they can get... all that they know they definitely have available to them right now... the concessions that the punch gives them to keep them coming back for more.
But those at the top of the hierarchy who supply the punch aren't about the concessions... it's about humanization of others and themselves and of those drinking the punch.
Someone needs to give the punch-drinkers-- or inform them of-- a better option than the punch so that when they stop getting it they won't go into horrible withdrawals and think they're dyying or that they've lost everything or that their personhood has been stripped from them... which are all torture.
They need something better or at least temporarily pain relieving to get them off the punch without it being torture for them in ANY way, shape or form. Then (and because of that) they can find even better after.
But I'm not the one that needs or deserves or is equipped to be providing them that service... with some of them, I'm their victim, and I was never any of their aggressor. All I owe them is to tell them that better that doesn't hurt them is out there for them.
