VIOLENCE

What’s Wrong with Us Humans?

The question man never finishes

Photo by Derek Story on Unsplash

What’s wrong with us?

I mean you and me

but not just you and me

.

I mean us — the people on earth, the earthlings

we who have lived here for hundreds of thousands of years

we who live our time on earth

.

What is wrong with us?

Why is the biggest problem still today

that man commits violence against other people

.

Why is man still fighting today against physical violence,

structural violence, economic violence, sexualized violence,

psychic violence, war, and the proliferation of deadly handguns?

.

Why is the overriding problem still today

that we have not become civilized

— after such a long time?
