Why Do We Let the Minority Rule Us and Why Are People So Cruel to Foreigners?

So I watch the news every now and again, I've recently stopped because I'm trying to stay away from negativity which is pretty silly because this is what's happening n the world I live in and I should keep informed.

So I was watching the news last night and again I heard about the corrupt officials and the fighters who surrender to them. Basically, we're all fucked in my opinion because there is about a total of 300 officials in every country and a country has an average of at least 6m people. Now you're telling me that when the Trumps and Zuma of the world are wasting state resources on houses and holidays we as the people just sit back calmly and say "aw man i wish we didn't have to pay so much taxes."

From what I've heard from people in America and read in articles online, Trump is a racist, corrupt individual who basically hates women and wants to destroy the country. (I will not lie i admire his business sense) but he is treating a country as if its a company and that's wrong.

In South Africa, before Rhamaposa came into power there was the old president named Zuma and he wasted over 500 billion South African Rand in upgrading his estate (taxpayers money). There is also currently Malema who has now created his own political party which basically focuses on destroying the white minority but is, in turn, destroying the countries economy and basically fucking everyone over.

We have the officials in Iran and Iraq fighting for their nations which has caused an influx of refugees worldwide. Another one of these fights many people don't know of is the one between Eritrea and Ethiopia which is also causing thousands of people to flee their homes in search of a better life.

Do you think anyone ever thinks 'gee I wish there was a war in my country that would make me fear for my life and the lives of my children and family members just so I can have a fucking reason to leave." I'll let you know, refugees have the greatest pride in their countries, they love their countries full heartedly but because of circumstances they were forced to leave. And South Africa and America, as well as many other countries with corrupt officials, aren't that far off from causing a series of their people running away from home.

Being forced to leave your home and go to a country whose customs and people you don't know isn't fun, especially if you're doing it as a provider for kids. Leaving your whole family history behind just so you can protect your kids.

Honestly, fuck everyone who thinks a refugee is a problem in their country. You don't fucking know what it's like to be forced to leave and goddammit! Stand up for your fucking selves. We live in a world where you can communicate with dozens of people worldwide at the touch of a finger- what's the point of having so much power if we're all too meek to use it. this is exactly why people are taken advantage of when it comes to taxes and going with things you just plainly don't agree with.
