Yesterday I could have been continuing to enjoy the Yankees winning the World Series or wondering what is going on with the Red Wings. Instead, I spend my free time looking for updates on the lunatics storming Congress and holding up signs equating health care reform to the Holocaust.Ashtrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04137610214279832668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8067755.post-89935494172449108672009-11-06T12:10:00.929-05:002009-11-06T12:10:00.929-05:00People who don't care about politics actually ...People who don't care about politics actually do have a lot of added stress, that manifests a bit differently. <br /><br />Most non-voters/non-carers have a feeling of hopelessness around it. Absolutely everyone has opinions on race, immigration, umm- abortion, law, etc etc. Everyone. But most people feel they don't have a say, they feel disillusioned and don't link what is happening in the world with themselves, they feel powerless. So rather than moan about the issues, they moan about mundane issues like how bad dinner was, or how fucked their internet connection is. <br /><br />I think it's better to have passions for things. Sports make me feel more alive than most other things in life.The Kid In The Front Rowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11284758898483746863noreply@blogger.com
