About We are not better than they are
By Shot Gun


        Truth hits you right in the face like a sledgehammer on an ice
cube, doesn't it?

        I have my clique and you have yours. In my clique, there are the
condescending, sarcastic, critical, philosphical and intellectual
persons, whereas in yours, you get the "morons" who don't know any
better. In other words, we're better than you. It's a hierarchy, isn't
it? We're better than YOU.

        But, we are all the same people. We live in the same city, hold
some of the same interests and likes, and we think, breath and eat. We
are identical. We have to break ourselves up, however because of our
pretenscious nature. We are all the same, but we lie, so we can think we
are better.

        As life tumbles down the road, we'll realize we're all grown
up, and notice that these "morons" are our everyday friends, our
co-workers, our people in government, our police and firepeople, our
lawyers and extremists. They are us, we are them. But we break ourselves
up because we think we are better.

        You can hide the fact that we are a disgrace and we are
dispicable. We turn our backs in ridicule the others who know less than
us, or who present themselves alien from us. We are hypocrits, facists
and don't know any better than anyone else. We think we are the judges,
and we play god, but we have no right to. We put you down because you
are different, because you seem like an idiot to us. We don't even know
you. We are narrow-minded, opinionated and judgemental. You look up to
us. You awe at us and we relish in it. But, we see you as trash, as
garbage, not as people who also want to learn. We're no better than you,
and vice versa. We have too much time to waste. We worry about you
people too much, but there's another huge issue to topple over that we
overlook in ourselves - ignorance.

        Oh, how we think you as ignorant, but we are no better. We do
not know you, and judge. We do not know you, and crucify you; we do not
know you. It's why society wanks, why people fight... why... everything.
A lot of us have that facist side in us; we want everyone to be like
us so we can stand them. We don't want anyone to be different because we
are IT. We are IT.

        Is it self esteem? Is it the fact that you present a threat to
us? It's obviously more than an annoyance. You re too much like us; we
don't like that and want you to be rid of, to be killed off... to be
gone, because we are better, aren't we? Of course we do. We hate,
despise, kill off. We are eugenics. We are the dictators in our own way.
We are lower than you, because we have stooped lower than you. We've
always been lower than you. You could never hate us; you awe at us and
praise us and speak about us, but we hate you and beat you and despise
you. We don't realize it however... we can't realize it. We're better
than you, remember?

        You are not the morons. We are. We are the morons. We can't see
past our noses. We try to impress each other, not through narcotics and
fakeness, but knowledge and hatred. We compete in trying to obliterate
you. It's our life. it's what we waste our time on... we don't help
anyone. We cause the dissension and demoralization and hatred... we make
you hate. We make you hate each other and us; you are becoming us.

        And we don't like that.
