Excuse...ism

We live in a world were we fashion out titles for ourselves and then polish them with our ideologies.  Socialist, Communist, Capitalist, Feminist, Humanist - the list is endless.  Lovely to sound and feel important, isn't it? And to think you don't need to pass any exams to warrant such a noble standing or title.  No, one just has to self Knight themselves. I am a  .........ist. Happy Days. Good for you.

Starving children really care what  ........ist you are, I'm sure.
Maybe it would be good for us all to just try and make peoples lifes better first.  We can worry, or in my case, not worry what   ........ist you are later, instead of us making excuses by hiding behind labels and ideologies for not helping our suffering friends.
