About that original Thanksgiving:
By 1637… Massachusetts Bay Colony governor John Winthrop “was proclaiming a thanksgiving for the successful massacre of hundreds of Pequot Indian men, women and children” – a bloody pattern that would “repeat itself across the continent until between 95 and 99 percent of American Indians had been exterminated”.
My reactionary programming now tells me to indiscriminately kill americans in retaliation. I hate the human mind in that regard. We just cant help ourselves being stupid. Sometimes i think we should never have left the trees.
Does anyone have a suggestion how to not rage all the time? My stomach is making huge problems because of all the anger in the last year. I need to calm down while still agitating others.
Are you organized in real life? In addition to its necessity for getting anything done and for studying correctly, it’s very grounding to work with real people on real problems, and it’s calming to see even small wins. Rage is a natural reaction when you have nowhere to direct your feelings and are focused more on hatred for the capitalist class than on love for the people, but when you’re channeling your feelings properly into productive action, rage fades.
