I’ve written before about my recovery from being a political junkie. It doesn’t mean I don’t pay attention. I simply no longer gorge on politics. I try to keep my news intake to 30 minutes a day and I try to read from a few different viewpoints in order to triangulate what’s really true.
First, they got us to stop critical thinking by giving us all standardized tests.
Then they distracted us with all this technology.
Then they got some of us (and an increasing number) to doubt whether America was good at all. Now we're too busy — and simultaneously too lazy — to think and to represent the values and innovation that made this nation great.
A house divided cannot stand, but the dark forces in power do not care. They know how to make a buck off the whole deal.
I agree, been saying it for 4 years. Is the egotistical, rude, & name-calling Trump & the barely cognizant Biden the best this country can push forward to run for President? Where are our TRUE LEADERS & PATRIOTS?!
