Perhaps someday, when you're the one in desperate need--when it's your family being hauled away, your livlihood being threatened, your life and freedoms on the line--then you might understand. And on that day, you'll hope and pray that someone, ANYONE, will take a stand for you when you are left bereft of your power and your voice.
Despite your selfishness, I hope that, should such a day come to pass, people like Blitz will speak up for you the way they have for countless other humans rights causes throughout history. Change has always relied on the courage of a few brave people who draw lines in the sand and set themselves firmly against intolerance and injustice.
We are all in a shared struggle for our rights and freedoms, whether you realize it or not. Some suffer in this struggle greatly, while others enjoy relative comfort and the liberty to criticize, support, or ignore issues at their leisure. But the truth is that none of us are free until ALL of us are free. The great wheel of human history turns ever forward--you can ignore it and hope you don't wind up crushed beneath it, or you can take the wheel and help steer towards a better future for all.
