And what I find really surreal is how a lot of people will literally be angry at you if you don't apply the same level of emotion and energy into it as they do. It's so weird. As I said before to each their own and if someone wants to immerse themselves into national politics, then go for it. Your life, do what you want. But when people get upset because some of us aren't interested in politics, it's really bizarre to me. The power of politics is incredible. It turns seemingly otherwise normal people into these crazed states of mind to where if you don't agree with their views or are as obsessed about it as they are that it angers them.

Democracy is an extremely demanding form of government to keep running smoothly, especially with all the division that exists today due to the two party system.
Historically when the people become complacent towards the actions of their government, it winds up in a government so corrupt that the people lose that luxury of complacency.

I'm not complacent, but I'll be damned if I'll be guilt tripped, cajoled, razzed, made fun of, and anything else negative into creating my own stress and negative feelings because I should "take up arms" and yell in the streets and get in peoples faces to make them change their minds to my way of thinking by being a self righteous asshole. (I'm not saying you are, or anyone else is in here, but they are there/here) A lot of you in here are at least 2 decades younger than me and have not had as much life experience and just living for a few more decades. You'll see when you get to your 50's and older.
I can't explain it, you'll just have to live it to know. Like I said, voting is my only power, WTF else can I do that won't endanger my well being, comfort, and way of life I have now? Should I get petitions started and walk door to door expending energy I don't need to expend? I'm not that bored and I value the time I have left in this world more than all that horseshit. Am I supposed to sacrifice all I've worked for to get into the place I'm now just for bragging rights politically or some shit. No fucking thank you! Y'all have fun with that, over there, away from me. I don't have time for foolishness and useless futile endeavors that do not edify my well being and those around me.
Let me also add I do respect people that take certain actions to get things done for themselves and their communities in positive and productive ways.

It's pointless trying to change anyone's mind. If someone can't recognize that Trump is evil, it's because they themselves are evil. You'll never convert them, it's not a failure of their logic. It's a failure of their basic humanity.
You can, OTOH, steal their catalytic converter.

LOL, and then there's that. I would never fuck with anyone's car. I feel like it's almost a needed appendage to my body sometimes unfortunately. I depend on it a great deal, but I have done the city transit thing many times and I can easily adapt to it, I just don't have/need to luckily.

Just by voting you're already doing far more politically than a large percentage of our population does.

The funny thing is when Republicans lose the White House and senate, who fucking cares if they self reflect because the Republican Party will be out of power for a decade. Donald Trump has so tarnished the brand that there is no coming back.
Kind of proving my point really, that is exactly what people said before he won the first time.

As soon as I saw him in there, I knew he would get it. It was so obvious and seems scripted to infuriate and control people through this farce of a political system. It's all planned. So, I move along, vote, and just have as much fun as I can because that's a good life to me. I'll not die while living, ever!

His supporters applaud him for trolling his opponents but think he's somehow being straight up with them and actually on their side.
But to your earlier comments, yeah you won't see me at any riots in my neck of the woods. When I was younger, people I knew were always going to protest the G8 and G20 meetings etc. Never went then either.

I do find it really amusing how much he triggers liberals and makes their heads explode, but ultimately I do think him trolling and attacking other politicians and tweeting insults to C and D list celebrities because they don't like him is pathetic...even when I admittedly find it funny sometimes. Like dude you're the President and you're tweeting Joy fucking Behar??? 
Shit like that only furthers the divide and hatred/anger in this country and as the freaking President he needs to rise above that petty shit. Act presidential. If they attack you ignore them. Or take the high road. It's one thing (I guess) to act that way while campaigning but when you're in office you need to be presidential. And obviously Trump has shown that he is not going to do that.

I think he gets his trolling honestly, and by that I mean he doesn’t know he’s doing it, at least not in the context that his supporters think he is. He’s spent his life being divisive in an attempt to gain attention. That’s literally what reality TV is, and it’s always been what he’s about.
I too love the retarded shit he says. It’s great. I also agree that somebody even remotely presidential would be nice.
