Les étoiles meurent aussi ~ Gewll |
We the privileged, ensconced in these gilded cages of ideological rebellion; we
the pampered, well fed and materially engorged with meaningless technology and
protein; we are mistaken to believe, in our liberal delusion, that these
struggles to overthrow, struggles to throw off the yoke, are anything less than
the struggles for power. We the meek but strident defenders of the underdog, we
the well-informed, the well-read connoisseurs of history’s lesser-told-tales,
we, with hangovers from excess, are mistaken to believe other than that it all
boils down to barbarism; to blood and bone so easily spilled and splintered in
the pursuit of justice, of freedom, of equality, of anything but the truth.
