Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry

This is the impression I get from some people after reading responses to political articles. Some people seem to actually go down through all the comments and reply to every single one that they disagree with separately, this is especially magnified when they post youtube links to conspiracy videos and the like. The election really is bringing out people with some issues, more so than previous ones I think.
What I would like everyone to realize is that both candidates aren't as bad as their opponent says and aren't as good as they say. Some people treat it like a sporting event, completely ignoring what their guy does wrong and unfairly magnifying every little thing the other guy does. Both sides are guilty of this. Even if I feel one side is more guilty of fear tactics and faith manipulation than the other and thus voted for the other party, they are both guilty of misleading us however it benefited them at the moment, and I'd be naive to think otherwise.

While I'm not really into politics much, I do agree with what you are saying :)

Also, that picture makes me think of most the furry population in general xD Oh, what drama-whores we are *shakes head*

I posted that pic in a reply to someone that had replied dozens of times to one article and then went back and replied to everyone that had replied to them afterwards. I'm sure I got a paragraph long reply with a link to a youtube video, but I don't care enough to go check XD

Adding politics to a group of furries, is as to adding a match to a puddle of gasoline.

This is why I tend to post few politically-related articles, why most of the ones that are posted are light-hearted, and why I handle them so carefully.
