    I’m a voter. I will ‘do shit’. It’s a fucked up world and many people fit your generalization, but it’s the job of reasonable people everywhere to educate others and promote sanity and optimism wherever possible.

      Yeah, you’re right. I think Jon Stewart said that he hates apathy and all that when he first departed the Daily Show.

      I just think my wall-to-wall coverage of all of this has angered me too much.

      Thanks for being a reasonable voice.

      promote sanity and optimism

      Exactly. Optimism is how you win elections. It gives us the hope that a better tomorrow is possible, and our efforts will get us closer to it.

      Complacency and apathy are the enemies. After 2022, I don’t really care much for polls. It’s nice to know the vibe, but they are descriptive, not prescriptive.
