Right. The things that could solve the problem (education, voting rights etc) are also being actively undermined by the people benefitting from the problem. I try not to think about it too much because it is so utterly depressing. And that’s part of the problem too. All the bad guys are tearing every positive institution to the ground and everyone who actually sees the injustice is so tired of being outraged they seem to just be giving up. Anytime I start to talk about it the people around me don’t want to hear it. On social media if I write about some injustice I think is really important I get crickets. We’re in a weird sad moment.
