RE: Inside the Echo Chamber: You're Totally Entitled to Your OPINION; You Are NOT Entitled to Being RIGHT!

in #politics7 years ago

I am done with politics... it has become it's own echo-chamber of detached individuals making a career by advertising themselves.

Principles and the actual content and consequence of legislative action unfortunately have no correlation at all to the talking points anymore. It's a bit like coca-cola presenting itself as a life-loving healthy drink (look: green lables and organic sweetener) for active adventurers.

I try to ignore the bickering for my attention.

The real politics that affect my life are probably in the sphere of my neighbours and my landlord and how I have to market myself to them everyday, anyways?!

I guess there's a point I am struggling to make: We as a society ( both geo-politically as well as on the smallest social scale) are so far detached from the core of principles that we are merely dealing with nothing more than surface projections of some "remarkability". It plays out on all levels and it makes our collective existence quite unproductive in the long term scale.

I see it as a phenomenon of time as we go through evolutionary cycles. The totality of individualism under external impressions is clashing with the availability of information without time constraints and delays. It feels like everything is just going down from here, but I think we are just building up a healthy deficit to be filled with renewal by the generations to come... our grand-grand-grand-children will be able to deal with things constructively again...

P.S.: well, that turned into quite the ramble
