The Torture Museum
Jun. 20th, 2019 02:26 pmI had been wanting to go to the Museum of Medieval Torture, and E did not want to go, so I went alone on Monday. I thought it would be super cool and that I would really enjoy it. I surprised myself by finding it overwhelmingly depressing and sad. It's amazing what humans can do to each other. It's amazing what is happening in my country right now, with so many people being treated as subhuman. And now old Japanese interment camps are being used again to house migrant children. Unbelievable, but it is true. It just sickens me. And apparently the Obama administration did the same thing ... how did I not know that? What has happened to the world? Previously I would enjoyed the Torture Museum in the same way I enjoy learning about Plague and gruesome diseases, because they are more or less in the past. But people being unthinkably horrible to each other is most definitely not in the past.
