I'm so frustrated.

Okay, I clearly am PMS'y yet again. Does THAT ever get old?
I'm so frustrated I am crying.
Here is why. I will not name names.
Here are some DIRECT QUOTES by someone. DIRECT QUOTES. Whether or not you agree with them, I do not, and they made me really sad.

In regards to the fact that we stole land and killed our way to this land, taking from the Native Americans, it was said "Oh, that was just a case of the best man winning."
VOMIT. NO. It was NOT okay that we did that. Does that mean that what we did to the slaves was okay? Or to the Jews?
There are snide comments about Obama and mexicans living here and how they live and Native Americans in general and how horrible government is and how they are trying to run our lives ...and on and on and on. I am not kidding. This is a cynic if I've ever known one, and trust me, I know one. Or two. Or three.

This person just CHASTISED ME ON FACEBOOK. I posted a video of an orangatang and hound dog who are in love with eachother. It's the sweetest, best thing to watch. I said "if only humans could act this way" and got a public chastising for it, about how maybe I need to change my focus and the world is good and not bad and I need to stop looking at the bad.
UM, WHAT?
WHO, ME??????
ME???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I am the one who doesn't care that Mexicans and whoever else is coming here. American's are lazy asses, let them work here. I don't care. It's better here than where they are from. I'm happy to take in a homeless person. I'm happy to donate a kidney. I'm happy to help someone in need. I think that we are destroying ourselves. I think if we were more accepting of people, it would be better. Government is never going to make everyone happy and it's far too corrupt anyway to be how it should be. The whole thing is going to have to crumble before anything changes. I don't care. I try hard to not let the shit into my head. I surround myself with good news and happiness. Sometimes the shit leaks into my head anyway.
But to ...here is what was posted.
AND THEY ARE!!...a world of people can not be judged by the few 'bad apples'. I believe on the whole, people are kind, considerate. caring, loving, helpful, etc. Too much focus is on the 'bad apples' instead of on all the good people and all the good that is being done in this world! A shift in focus might help......


UM WHAT? But it's okay to kill for land if you're bigger and stronger. It's okay to distrust and dislike your neighbors because they still live in family units. It's okay to stare at what comes out of their houses so you can judge them for what's in there? It's okay to make racial comments about people? WHAT?? Are you telling ME????
UGH.
I'm so irritated.
If the words made sense with the OTHER words or the actions or the feelings....if anything made any sense, but there's such a disconnect, such a big ole disconnect.
DISLIKE.
