I moved to Mastodon.socialNov 17, 2023

I want to follow up on the reason I see so much anger and cynicism.

(The anger isn't directed at me. It looks like this: "Trump is above the law! There is no accountability! The DOJ dragged its feet!")

There were some interesting comments about why I see so much of it.

I'll add another: People assume that I am liberal and in the same information bubble and therefore, I will agree with them when they repeat the current memes.

It's a group-think thing.

@Teri_Kanefield This type of reaction and expectation is habit developed over the last 7 years. Reaction and reply. Reaction and reply. We all need therapy to undo this nonproductive behavior pattern.

See what I mean 😬

I just want people to think.
There is an absence of rationale and empathy in these absurd times.
People vote with their ass, not with their head.
