Old People
Funny guys. Different values. The obscure relatives I'm hanging out with are an interesting bunch of people. Now, the two stories may be one person, may be two. Don't know.
Apparently, there was this old married couple. They were living in an apartment building. However, there was a problem.
According to my old relative, the place was "overrun with Somalis."
What is this, Attack of the Zulu Nation on an apartment complex?
The woman wanted to leave. The man didn't. The man died. She moved out.
It seems to me, that if you go into something deep enough and you become crazy enough, it always comes down to conspiracy. Doesn't matter what, but it's there.
For example, take a conspiracy theory homeless guy and a corrupt leader in that country in which he's leaving. Now, Homeless Guy is convinced that he has all the answers, that he knows how to run the country, and that there is a power block that is preventing him from being all that he can be, so to speak. Likewise, Corrupt Leader is convinced that he has all the answers, that he knows how to run the country, and that there is a power black that is preventing him from being all that he can be, or is attempting to take his rightful power away from him. And then you get dictators. The poor hate the powerful for being powerful while they are powerless; the leader hates the other powerful for being powerful while they are powerless.
If you believe strongly in something, and there's a problem that you can't fix, it has to be a conspiracy. The Communists believed that an American conspiracy was preventing them from becoming powerful. Likewise, when Clinton was in power, the Republicans routinely trashed "the liberal media."
If it's really a conspiracy, and your side is strong enough, start a revolution. If that can't be done, grow your cause, then start a revolution from underneath the conspiracy.
Keep in mind, the conspiracy could all be in your head.
Peace out.
