    What isn’t inevitable is that the rest of us would welcome them in without resistance. That part is fucking weird.

    People, in general, have this “someone else will stop it” or “someone needs to step up” mentality, and they wait around to be saved; kind of like a whole crowd watching someone dying and no one calling 911.

    There seems to this paradox were we simultaneously want to be noticed but also blend in with the crowd. How we fix that is beyond me, but we need to soon, because if we don’t, we’ll be constantly doomed to repeat the past.
