RE: Destroying Other People's Property Because You Didn't Get What You Wanted

in #anarchy8 years ago

I have noticed a tendency for this problem to occur most frequently among those who get taken care of by government programs. I believe a large part of this mindset involves those who were never taught and got into a mindset of working for what they receive. Guessing that there is little ability for empathy as they have no idea how hard it is to acquire and grow any semblance of wealth.

In fact, they are often told that those who have were beneficiaries of a system of oppression, and do not deserve what they have worked for.

As for those who riot after something good happening like their sports team (not really theirs though nor do those players or owner give 2 shits about them) I am not really sure what those people are tripping over. I can say though that in many cases like the scenario I painted above, they often wonder why economic conditions are depressed, somehow never connecting the idea that if they make it unsafe to be there and steal and destroy from the businesses, smart people will not put their business there, and if dumb enough, will not rebuild for seconds if hit hard by one of these riots.

Sort:  

Yeah, "my team", "we won", people are so lost in identification :/ They get so excited over things that have nothing to do with them. Lost in bullshit.
