"Do they speak of corruption? I heard that is global.

Now they have just begun to kidnap people!

When the lifestyle/livelihood of a citizen of a country is constantly and continually put under pressure as apparently is the case, in this case; without so much as any substantial hope for any kind of relief from the sustained harassment, and strife- what do people do? Do they, ‘hang in there’ or not (and hope for the best?); would they prefer to ‘hang up’ (and look away, not bothering, either way?), or ‘hang out’ there (in what seems to be better situations/countries?)?

Perhaps they might just ‘hang there’ (not caring less, nor doing anything, about anything) like this curtain on my studio* door, whose opinion I am not really interested to bother with, as regards my treatment of it.

My curtain no longer cares, about my varied activities that I take it through, or through it- even when I literally drag it through these.
