Given the troubling trajectory of recent American aggression, it’s deeply concerning to consider where this country may be headed if it continues along a path so devoid of empathy. Millions are already suffering—families are being torn apart, and the emotional toll is immense. Without a dramatic shift, there is a very real risk of a powerful and painful backlash.
Across the nation, hundreds of thousands are taking to the streets to voice their frustration and demand change. Rather than listening, the response from leadership has been to entrench failed strategies of control and suppression further. This is unsustainable. The pressure is building, and it’s only a matter of time before even more people rise to resist.
What’s most alarming is the growing possibility of widespread violence, as ordinary people feel forced to confront a government they increasingly view as a source of harm. Historically, the fight for justice in America has often come at a devastating cost, and it appears that, once again, we are heading toward that painful and familiar path.
The road to real liberation in this country has never been easy. It’s been paved with sacrifice, suffering, and heartbreak. Sadly, that road still stretches out before us, and it doesn’t yet seem to be taking a different direction.
