Back in the Soviet Union there was a saying, "So long as the bosses pretend to pay us, we will pretend to work."
In part of our culture today, that has become the truth. We have pretenders all around us.
I'll pretend to love America while I stomp on the flag and you say nothing
I'll pretend to want justice while you allow me to destroy the peace
I'll pretend to be abused while I abuse you
I'll pretend to want colorblindness when color is all I see when I look at the world
I'll pretend that nothing is changed when everything HAS changed but I won't see it
