Don’t let the title fool you completely. This is not a bash America thing or anything of the sort. I am however, writing to provoke the minds of people to understand just how fucking stupid and pathetic we look right now. Do you realize that we are in the middle of the worst health crisis since the Spanish Flu and we have government officials who are politicizing this crisis, mostly because they are absolute morons, they lack the spine to challenge a gutless President and the sorriest reason of all, is they want to win the November election. I never thought that I would live to see the day where people care about politics over the welfare of over three hundred million people. But, then again I have to remember that this is also the same country that fought to keep black people as slaves. This is also the same country that refuses to make reparations to Black people for the free labor they got from us. So I guess, in hindsight, it all makes perfect sense right.

We are sitting here more than three months from the outbreak of this virus in the United States and the truth is we’re no better off now than we were in March when things first broke out. We have new cases surging over half of the United States. Southern States, that opened way too fucking soon, because of the ignorant, minion like mentality for following this incompetent ass President by Republican Governors across the South. We now see states rushing to roll back some of their reopenings and now trying to reinforce the Science and Medical community warnings that masks need to be mandatory and that people need to stay the fuck away from each other. Question is will it be too late?

You keep hearing the medical experts saying that if we don’t act soon, that we will not be able to get control of this virus in a meaningful way, which means we will be fucked and who knows how devastating the death toll will be. Additionally, we still have no idea what the long term effects of the virus is on the human body, but from early reports it ain’t good. Someone needs to really tell me how much longer are we going to sit here and be manipulated to thinking that being ignorant and arrogant about this virus will keep you safe? We aren’t going to just be able to overpower this infection. It has the upper hand because it’s unknown. We don’t have the medicines to stop and cure this virus, so why the fuck are people out here acting like it’s just another day in the park?

Listen I understand that to continue to be home and away from people is rough. I understand that sitting home is not the preferred method of handling this situation. True that most of us may not know anyone who has this virus, but I want you all to be mindful that at any given moment in time, it can be you or someone you love or care about infected, battling for their lives. As we have seen, it doesn’t matter if you’re famous or not. Black or White, this virus will get you. But naturally, it is more devastating to the black community, yet all I see is so many of us, especially the young ones, out in the streets or in the clubs all hugged up and close, not social distancing and not wearing masks. What the fuck is wrong with y’all? So many say they’re tired of being home and doing nothing. Tired of not being out in the streets. But what happens if you get infected with Covid?

The time really has come for us to stop thinking of the individual self and look at the collective whole. We must protect ourselves and our community. It’s hard but not impossible. If you gotta go out, be smart. Social distance, wear your mask. It ain’t hard and it won’t cost you a damn thing. If we really are that hard headed that we would rather have luxury over our health, what the fuck does that say about us as a people?

Wake the fuck up, please.
