Please stop the world I want to get off
I have a feeling I am not on my own
this is the story so far
My grandparents lived through the 30,s
They saw the rise of Hitler
I was born in the 70,s to me America though a child’s eyes was Micheal Jackson moonwalking on the stage and the space shuttle take off shown on a wheeled in television in school assembly the future seemed bright and hopefully
They were our allies
World leaders deescalating the Cold War
The Berlin Wall came down
But fast forward and power has shifted from freedom
To insanity
Russian troops invade Ukraine
Trump talks of taking Greenland by force
China is a surveillance state
And tech bros ,the unelected elite are taking us into a future we’re no one is sure if they ll have a job while creating a technology so powerful even they do nt know how it works
AI is scary and if your not scared you should be
The worlds been run by nutters
And all this is before
Yes all this madness is before
Wait for if
The crowning of glory off
What the hell just happened
The world’s richest man gives the the new president the Nazi salute on stage at his inauguration and no one in the audience bats an eye lid
Then he frees rioters who attacked democracy
The capital building in his own name
while he had a toddler tantrum about losing an election
Am I the only one to notice
That the world has gone insane ?
Everything is broken
it's a mess
and the grown ups are nt in charge

I'm not sure anyone's in
I'm not sure anyone's in charge now. It's just the billionaires fighting each other for stuff that won't save even them when the planet decides it's had enough.
Still, we have an obligation to try and make the present at least bearable for as many as we can, no matter what the future brings.
