from Ari Meelber regarding the latest in what he describes as a 'ritual' cycle of angst and grief and then doing fuck all
about shootings in usa.
no need to watch its entirety, the opening monologue runs about 3 minutes.
he uses words like 'negligent', and 'complicit' in their approach to actually dealing with the issue.
he berates americas normalisation and ongoing acceptance of this phenomenon... hmmm phenomenon might be the wrong word but it seems unique to american society, although ive made reference in another thread to our own elephant in the room that is infanticide and our ritual of blame, hand wringing and then doing fuck all (ongoing acceptance,)) is just marking time between deaths.
at which point do we too become complicit by neglect to act as well?
