I find many a similarities between a cuckold and the UN, but lets not talk about that. Lets talk about how come the biggest global organization in the history of global organizations is on a path to bankruptcy (maybe its not that severe). Truthfully at the end of the day the amounts pledged to the organization come from our pockets and our say there is so far removed in proxies that a common man doesn't gives a s*** about what happens there.
If the last two decades have shown us anything, it is that neither our countries nor the UN are willing to protect us. The question of protection isn't about protection from outside, the heart of the question is that 'who protects us from our own governments?’.
People are learning the hard way that they are on their own. This has created a dangerous but a healthy amount of apathy for their crap. UN has much bigger problems than money. The most glaringly obvious problem is that after seven decades of failure people don't care about UN anymore.
Let’s take a look into the UN and what it means to us today. What is United Nations? UN is a theoretical and a fairy tale organization that presides over what is called the - ‘nobody gives a shit about this anymore’ council. The reason being that events of this world are not being affected by reason and logic anymore.
In a place where revolutions have been manufactured for last 70 years and dictatorships have been propped up in the name of democracy……… let’s just say that people have reached their end of tolerance for hypocrisy in something they were taught to consider sacred. And let’s not confuse sacred with people’s faith.
I do not even know who the secretary general of the UN is anymore. The problem is not that I do not know that who the SG is, the real problem is that I don’t care enough about it to know who the SG is.
Apathetic I am certainly not. But the sad reality is that my instincts tell me that this is not worth my time. I have maybe 30-40 years left on this earth and there are things that I need to do. Loved ones to take care of. People to meet and tell them that this a world that doesn’t give shit about us anymore. It is each human’s business today to share with other humans their knowledge of how to take care of themselves.
So, you see that this is not about ‘not caring’. This is about caring for the right thing. We all have a limited time. Better to make sure that we spend it caring for those, who can at least give a shit back. And caring for what truly matters to us.
(All of the above is my rant at the frustration I feel. I have found that emotions can have little to do with reality and yet be realist thing that you can come across)
