Presenting 52.06 - The Justice of Inequality... The narrator re-introduces himself and notes of how apocryphal the current poems are in relation to his tale, however he promises to continue it for the sake of his sanity. Following this, he makes a discussion of the 2024 election season, and a peculiar thought he had associated with it, that women should not have an equal vote to a man.

Description done... now for legal reasons I'll say I'm not a sexist. I just don't think votes matter, or any form of government matters, for so long as the people are evil there will be no good society. People under God, saves, not government. This said, according to Aquinas the form of government most suitable for a kingdom of heaven is monarchy.

This said, I was born in a republic, so for the sake of future generations, I'd prefer a republic over civil wars for ridiculous new governments only imagined in the eyes of men. In a republic though, it must be a serious discussion on who should be allowed to vote, since the concept of "rights" has been taken too far so as to remove the rights of others.

By both practical and moral standards, votes should be handed to people most qualified, people who have the most stake in what's happening to the country. Soldiers are few compared to the multitudes who could at any passion of the media could either be crying for peace or war, yet they're the wons sent to war by popular opinion. In an ideal Republic, those deciding war should be those who've experienced it.

Now, to end, I'll probably copy what's said to here. I also take back what I said previously. By modern definitions, I would be a sexist. Yeah, I just don't think it's good for girls to suffer as much as men. It's tragic. There's nothing powerful about being trapped in a cubicle, but, guess good men are short in supply also. Even then, not many wives were treated well in the home. Ah well, that's the fruit for you.

As a woman, I don't work in a cubicle to feel powerful. I do it to provide for my family. I have a very disabled brother, and I don't trust anyone else to care for him. So I maintain my financial independence by working a cubicle job.

Suffering is inherent in life. There's no way to spare a woman from it, as long as we're alive on this earth. Everyone is going to face the challenges and toils of life.

I don't know, there's definitely some women who work to feel powerful. Which is kind of stupid in my opinion, because it seems the only people who are powerful in our society are those with an obscene amount of money. And beyond that, I'm not sure if I believe in a God, much less a Christian God, but I do believe there is a greater and powerful force at work in this world that we'll never fully understand.

@elilenti, Yeah I guess that's true. When those around us fail, it's our responsibility to raise ourselves. It's just not ideal though, those who should be responsible for others to slack in their duties. There's no way to spare people from all suffering, but we do have a responsibility to try.

And humanity has no hope in eclipsing this force in power.

Ellienti, I'll also say you're doing a good thing in working for your brother. To provide for those we love is the only reason why we should work. This said, God's with us, whether you believe or not. Still, for your benefit, I'd recommend you look up some Eucharistic miracles documented by Blessed Carlos Acutis. Now, may God be with. You have a tough life. God will help.

I'm probably too old to still relate to any phase of gloom and doom, but I'll just say that it's natural to feel sad all the time when one's circumstances really ARE that bad. Sometimes there are cases where one can't help but feel sad about a situation. When you do something you enjoy, you're satisfied. When you're life's sad, you're sad. It's the most natural thing in the world.

So, you're right in saying that emotions are situational. They can't be forced. However, where real strength comes from, I think, is from keeping emotions in check, so even if you feel them, you still figure out ways to make yourself useful for those you care about (or if you don't care about anybody, then yourself). Still, there's nothing wrong with how you are. It's just a marketing trick.

You can't sell anything to a person that's happy. If they're happy, trick them into thinking they're not. Truth is, whatever you are, if you're content with whatever emotion you're feeling, you're fine. People don't need to be happy all the time, and even if you're sad all the time, that's okay too. If there's reason to be sad all the time, it's probably normal.

You are aware of your situation and that in itself is a good thing. I would tell you not to waste energy thinking about how others would perceive you, but try to orient your days towards things that at least don't make you feel bad, Some days will be better than others, but the important thing is to try, for you, for your own wellbeing and from there you will get used to the rest of the world. Take care.
