Big People

Politically right...45 years ago

Once upon a time in a not so distant place, there lived a group of little people. As these people evolved over the generations, the spread out over the land and developed their own ideas, culture, language and religions. One day though, by some freak accident, a small group of the little people became big people. The big people began to emerge their own ideas and culture as well. After several years, the big people thought it would be a good idea to use there power of their size to control the little people. They appeared friendly on the outside by providing money, places to live and a comfortable living environment as long as the little people would make huge blocks of cement , spanning miles in area, for the big people. After a period of time, the big people had accumulated a large number of these huge cement blocks. The big people liked the blocks of cement very much. The developed games to play with the blocks of cement like throwing them back and forth until someone dropped one. One day, the big people were playing their silly game and enjoying life when the game got out of hand and one of the cement block was accidentally thrown into a city where several thousand little people lived. Many of the little people were crushed under the huge cement block and many of them barely escaped with their lives and lost all of their worldly possessions that they worked for while making these cement blocks. The little people were outraged. The big people, not knowing what to do, and wanting to continue playing their little cement block tossing game had to come up with something quick. The big people were not stupid though. They recruited a band of undesirable henchmen from the little people's culture and gave them vast amounts of money and other indulgables and guaranteed their comfort and happiness for the rest of their lives. This band of little peoples sole job was to lie. They were to return to the towns and cities where the little people lived and propagate lies about the other groups of little people. One group of little people began believing that the other groups of little people were bad because they believed lies that were told to thee by the henchmen little people. Before too long, the little people entered into a realm where one group of little people hated the next group of little people. Every group of little people grew to disassociate themselves with every other group of little people. The henchmen were also to propagate lies about the big people too. Even though the groups of little people hated each other, all of the groups of little people loved the groups of big people. They believed that the cement block throwing games were a good thing that the big people had to do because it was part of their culture and besides, it provided work for the little people. With this work, the little people could obtain all that they thought that they wanted; houses, cars, happiness.. etc.. One day the big people were tossing their cement blocks that the little people had made for them back and forth. Once again the game got out of hand and a huge cement block dropped on a town of little people killing everyone in the town. Well, none of the little people cared this time because they have come to believe that group of little people were bad anyway, it does not matter that they are all dead... as a matter of fact, it's probably good that they are dead because that means more work making cement blocks for us. As time went on, the game of the big people continued and unfortunately got out of hand from time to time. The little people, so driven by hate, did not care and did not do any thing to stop the cement block tossing games of the big people. Now, there will never be a chance for the little people to protect themselves because they are too brainwashed into thinking that they cant associate with any other groups of little people. They are happy doing their menial little jobs making more and more cement block for the big people and hating everyone else. But there is a chance some day that the big people will kill every one ... oh well
