Our Fallacy of Life

We are a species that have lost touch to our basic roots and reverted to the ways of hate, ignorance, and intolerance against any species including our own. We rape, pillage, and destroy the planet for "resources" that cannot be made at will or even be manipulated for the betterment of not only ourselves but the planet as a whole. Instead we stick ourselves in a cage called society and allow ourselves to be dictated by others while falling into a cycle of self-pity and blame everyone else for our troubles. We imprison other species and destroy their habit in the name of progress but yet we fail to grasp it as they venture into our world in search of a home that we destroyed. We cut the trees and forest that allow us to breathe and give life to the planet, we have made an ambiguous and abstract idea called money that poisons the thoughts of man, and we try with all our might to eradicate those who do not think, feel, believe, look, etc. like us. We have created the terms genocide, war, racism, mass murder that no other species but ourselves put into context and actively participate in. We look down on others and expect to be given respect, understanding, and acceptance while practicing the exact opposite and yet we look in surprise as these values aren't given to us. We merely tolerate others instead of having a level head and search for the answers that allow for a peaceful coexistence between each other. How insidious are we to marvel at creations that kill and damage others while looking at disgust towards inventions that promise a better life for all. We have truly created a hell that incarcerates individuals on the bass of keeping everyone safe while allowing those who truly wish to destroy the human race to roam free.
