Whats up??
Discussion
I’m sick of the political back-and-forth without anyone actually verifying anything and then realizing that the whole Don’t trust verify thing is complete bullshit because no one does it and everyone just believes these stupid headlines without digging in for any context or what the story was nothing and I find myself doing it now on both sides And then they’re asking me to explain it to them? Fuck that.
Complete agree 💯💯💯I have 1 friend who i debate politics with because they are willing to actually look for facts and proof of something happening not just headlines and yes we all get complacent sometimes but for the majority of people they literally just read the headline and expect it to be true and than wonder how everyone on the other side is being manipulated when they fall into the same trap. Youre not alone out there. I suggest just try and focus on discussing/debating with people who put in similar effort and want to have a constructive conversation not just shout their opinion into an echo chamber. You're doing the hard work and it's important that some people are atleast doing it!
And amen to all of that I just feel like sometimes I should try to say something that is constructive that might help but I don’t think it is going to change anyone’s mind at this point
