Given how little people care, I'm surprised that voter turnout is as high as it is. To me it feels like something that only about 25% of people would be inclined to do, given how ignorant and comfortable we are. And even fewer are actually qualified to give their opinion.I wish I had more faith in our ordinary citizenry.....but I hope you are right about this. I hate how fox news do these complete bullshit polls or opinions that run across the T.V screen saying shit like, "Yeah 54% of Americans are willing to go to war". God I hate that shit. It's predictive programming man, make everyone viewing it think "oh shit that many people want to go to war? fuck it I'm in."
Most the people I work with are like fucking pandas. I tell them this shit and they just shrug and want to to go back to talking about whatever Netflix junk their watching. Sometime I wish battery wasn't a crime.
I might just be dead ass wrong about thinking people have learned something from the last 17 years, I admit.
