DBK? No, You Have Other Options

I'm fed up. I've had it up to here with DBK, how it's so often put out there as inevitable, like it's the only option.

What happened to experts? Where's the authorities on this stuff? I remember when I was a kid, there were standards, someone in charge. But these days, I guess it's like they say, the adults are out of the room. The asylum's been taken over by the inmates. I hope that's not the complete truth. I hope there's still a few functioning brains somewhere in the vast bureaucracy we call the authority.

And, yes, I know it's possible. Because I'm here, and I'm one who's clearheaded enough to know, still, the basic difference between right and wrong, good and evil. DBK is wrong, folks, DBK is evil. From my mouth to God's ear, right? From one person being right to many, especially those in authority, who having the same basic, decent outlook.

Seriously, if we allow for DBK, tell me, what is out of bounds anymore? Anything? Because if DBK's not out of bounds, tell me what is! Everything's allowed! And that's the kind of turning point in a society, an empire, any entity, that leads us downhill. Is there a way back? Maybe not, although I certainly hope there is.

DBK is a powerful thing, and has a powerful voice behind it. As a thing it's seductive. And as for his voice, it appears to be his firmest conviction that he can't be stopped. I haven't been able to stop him. And, of course I know my posting schedule has been sporadic, once a year or once every few years, and that's not going to get the job done. I threw up my hands years ago when no one joined me.

Back then, compared to today, those were the days of relative innocence! Hard to believe. When DBK was actually a containable force, with a little help we could've cut it off at the source, merely with a few snips. Now, however, everything's different, thanks to inattention, all the various ones failing to act with conviction, and reasons of that sort right on down the line. I look back on it and I feel sick. It's the same as having a contagious disease isolated in the lab, only to find it's been released and has wiped out an entire swath of territory, like one of the minor continents.

But OK, blame my frequency of posting, if you think that's productive; it's not. But, then, for God's sake, after you've assigned blame, don't let it drop again, but take up the fight. The menace of DBK has progressed very far, but, somehow, it still hasn't consumed us.

Let's go! Ask yourself, is this the kind of world I want to leave for the younger generation? A world of DBK?
