Judgement
Why is it we judge?
Or better,
Why is it we judge and then say it's unfair?
It's no longer unfair
It's no longer unacceptable
But then was it ever?
We judged when we declared we were good enough to enslave the Africans
We judged when we thought we were a better fit for this land than the natives
We judge everyday without even realizing it
And then say "Don't judge me"
Judging is not unfair
It's what we learned to do
It's what we do for almost everything
But should we ALWAYS judge?
And what should we be judging, are the better questions
