Dear Israelis/Jews/Hebrews/Don-Meh/etc.,
I want you to know, that as much as we all seemingly hate your guts, some of us understand you. I know what it's like to feel persecuted, and feel like the world rags on you, constantly. (Because I'm white, I have been wronged, and so have my children). And despite popular consensus, many of my people feel wronged and unfairly maligned. The fact of the matter is, we all have really great people in our "tribes". But sadly, we all also have total shit-bags, including child molesters and worse, in our "tribes".
When I first learned about the ugly side of your people, I wanted to go full-fash, Nazi-style, goose-stepping and all that. I began to identify as a "white nationalist", and threw shade at everyone. But, I could not deny the ugly side of my own people. They were everywhere. Many of those involved in the cover-up of the abuse of my children, are not Jewish. Some are, yet some are black, and some are white as snow.
What does that mean? It means, the problem is not any of our "tribes". The problem is the same as it has always been. Evil exists. It always has, and likely always will. We must keep in mind, that hurting people hurt. I had never wanted to hurt a fly, until I was hurt myself. And when my children were harmed, I contemplated murder, in what seemed like a very natural and justifiable way. (If that makes sense).
Do some "tribes" have more of a problem than others. Yeah, probably. Or maybe some are just better at hiding it. Regardless, we all owe it to ourselves, our communities and to the world, to try our goddamn best to NOT let ourselves turn into one of the evil ones. This perpetuates an age-old cycle of hatred and violence, that only ends with each and every one of you, personally.
We will be confronted by evil still, moving forward. But how WE confront that evil, is what matters most. Are we going to confront it with evil of our own, which will foster an unending cycle of hate? Or will we confront evil, bravely, with honor, and with the resolve to not allow ourselves to degrade into that which we hate ourselves? The choice is a personal one, for each man and woman on the face of the globe.
I know this is far easier said than done. Trust me, I know.
Have you ever said something you didn't mean to family, out of anger, then realized how lucky you were that they understood you, and understood you didn't really mean it in your heart? And have you said something similar to a stranger, and gotten a completely different reaction, from that person who did not know you and did not know your heart? Sometimes, we lash out to show others how badly we are hurting… Not because we want to hurt others. But, because we feel wronged, and justified in our anger. Almost everyone has done this in some form or another. But, many do not understand you, and never will understand you, or strive to know any of those they do not understand.
It is our job to set a better example. To treat that person lashing out, like we would treat our own brothers and sisters. With understanding.
Some of us will confront unforgivable evil, that must be confronted with extreme prejudice. However, even then, we must not allow ourselves to go too far. We must always be just in our dealings with others. The good, the bad, and the ugly. We must all learn to take a joke. We must learn to think before we act. And, I promise you, we can make this world a better place.
Each generation born, is a new opportunity for a resolution. We all inherit a world we did not create, nor have a say in creating. Well, we have a say, RIGHT NOW. Don't we?
What are you going to say?
Sincerely,
Anon
I want a better world, for my children, your children, and everyone else's children.
We must secure an existence for ALL people, and a future for ALL children.
