A glance at world morning news today. My own sense of vomit-welling. Mostly because of two things. The first is a photograph of some women dressed to the nines and having what looks like a girl chat like, oooooooo sehsey bone, he's so hot. Problem is they are revel rousing with complicated topics like the topics are as disconnected from reality and people as whatever.
They look like surfer girls chatting about the Big Flip. Which is hardly assured and at best will be or would be different this time because of the other thing. I mean really, they look like two little pale, fragile human beings on a tray and not knowing under the tray is the fires of hell.
Like let's just have amnesia about twenty years of warring in the Middle East, let's pretend not to know that according to some Israel and Ukraine are fighting for survival. Let's hot poker and really get a head start on, what gets called "deportation" (they're in Italy, maybe they quip, we'll give those nasty wasties the boot). Not sure but it's air strikes and starvation wherever "deportation" is going to magically put them.
Just so wrong.
The war stuff is already all around us, so really it's just wrong to be flippant and careless and pom-pomming go team. It's hard, flying blindly into a world war, to grasp the utter seriousness of what's going on and it's hard to get into that other mode, war, but out here, not on the pastry tray beach, the war stuff is already real. We should be more mature. If not for ourselves, for the rest of humanity.
They plead the case for censorship because it's already jihad and military commanders (commanding in infiltrated areas) having to operate amongst civilian population. Much along the way to mind-numbing new styles of warring has already happened before election. It's way too gravity-laden everywhere to go with that kind of party-sphere election. Duh.
We have to be confident not cocky!
I thought we talked about being more like hockey moms for this situation.
This is my brain shifting gears. We have war-routine and other. We had not much time in the other department. Just enough to re-focus the binoculars, oh, saw a real bird of nature, then
Sources like NPR have caught us up on developments. The developments chugged through what "conversations" were possible. Through TV and social media "conversations" are really more editorials and opinion pieces and commentary than anything else. Elections will solidify some U.S. political action. But war transcends being just political.
It's something that happens to people as much as it is people making it happen. It's also something chain reaction. And it's not a one-sided thing. So while we are a two-party-system politically and this forges us into "sides" of the same coin, we are also pitted as one nation in war with "enemy".
In early stages of fighting in war both the enemy and selves are not as clearcut as when the warring develops. It is now to be careful with fellows in the foxhole. Tending to the homeland. Doubling-down on faith anchors. And assessing how decisions are interconnected; what would be different if....
I think part of what's broken is like, hiding in party politics. Philosophically, when one party plays king of the hill it invites disengagement if one can somehow get into the fortress. Like "owning" the hill is the same as being with the levers controlling the missiles, story done. Or having money is a pass on being part of world experience, that's a similar mindset.
Philosophically, if one calls for and enacts a state of elimination, say of a problem nation, that changes things fundamentally into "the other" endeavoring to eliminate back.
That speaks to both the situation in the Middle East and in Ukraine/Russia. I think the United States is trying to at least hold some sort of stability, or has been. Factors, though, have been pushing people towards something other than let's stabilize and live. Factors are influencing military actions more so than actual people are having influence on military actions. That way of warfare has a short trajectory culminating in warfare as dictator.
There may be no way to get along. No paradise of co-existence, but are we really wanting just all out death and destruction?
