I looked for someone to hate.
Someone told me: there's someone to blame.
There's someone who infected you. Some country, some lab somewhere, some ethnicity.
There's someone who's is responsible for your being sick. Some former president. Some international health organization.
There's someone who made you lose your job over a silly little disease that only kills old people, criminals, people of color - not regular people. Some governor, some mayor.
There's someone who took away your freedom. Who wants to enslave you over a silly little pandemic that has claimed more American lives than the Korean War, than the Vietnam War... Some political party.
There's someone who pretends you're sick. Who inflates the numbers of victims. Some deep-state bureaucrats churning out fake numbers. Wait, I just heard that my aide is sick with covid-19.
Someone told me: Hate would liberate me. Hate would take away the pain.
I looked for someone to hate.
I sought him, but could not find him.
