3/23/2017 2 Comments Unpopular OpinionsI don't know about you but especially with this election season I've been feeling lost. Lost in all the hate and anger. In the war between parties, but I don't even know why people are fighting each other. Both options were bad so I'm not even sure how we ended up here. I am genuinely worried, worried about what is to come because of these decisions. I have been trying to keep the peace in my soul but it is hard when there is so much fighting going on. I don't even understand why these intelligent people I know would so fiercely defend people they know aren't good. There is this thought that we have to choose the "lesser of two evils" but why? Honestly why, why are we just accepting this? "Because it is the way its always been" (this is the most dangerous phrase in the English language).
There are so many "problems" that people worry about that shouldn't even be problems, because everyone cares way to damn much what other people are doing. Honestly I don't care if someone is gay, bi, straight, or any other way they identify sexually (you could consider yourself a cheeto, I don't care). I don't care about peoples skin colors, I don't care about their genders, I just don't care. It is none of my damn business, if they aren't hurting anyone (and no hurting anyone doesn't constitute as them just doing something someone else dislikes even though it really has nothing to do with them). There are so many stupid things that are issues that shouldn't be honestly. It isn't someone skin color that makes them "bad" it is the culture they grow up in. Poor culture is very different from middle class. What these groups of people have to go through is very different (and don't even get me started on the rich, especially those from old money). The culture of growing up in a war zone is very different from living in mostly peace. These people need help. The people who are doing bad shit, they are mentally unstable, because happy or mentally stable people at least, they don't go out of their way to hurt other people. In the recent past it hasn't been with guns even its been with cars, and explosives and anything that can be used as a weapon, because its not about the weapon its about the person. If a person really wants to murder another person they will find a way. We need to be focusing on mental health to fix this. I don't know why we aren't focusing on it more, it is probably more important than our physical health as it can determine our physical health. I don't even understand why people care so much about someone else sexual orientation, and I'm Christian. Trying to "fix" someone and make them heterosexual just makes things worse and puts the person in an even worse place. It also pushes them farther away from faith (something that irritates me the most, people that say they are Christian but just seem to do everything in their power to push others away from faith). That shit really pisses me off. I am just so sick of this shit. I am trying to be positive over here, and make the world a better place, but that is hard when people are so hell bent on being upset. Honest to God it seems like there are so many people who just want to be angry loathsome people (I mean look at who our president is). I don't like using the word stupid, I truly don't because I want to see the good in everyone and maybe they just shine at something else, but honestly how much stupidity is going around makes me upset. It feels like people are doing two things over and over again. Not looking at the situation from someone else perspective and letting their emotions drive them. I do believe that we should show our emotions and shouldn't hold them in but being so emotion about every situation, come on get it together and think about it logically. People seem like they are just running around like chickens with their heads cut off just letting emotions drive them. Instead of all this bickering, we should find solutions, because sitting here and fighting stupid wars on the internet isn't changing anything. You can't push hate and anger and expect love and joy. "Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only light can do that" ~Martin Luther King Jr. Please, lets just breath, and then find some actual solutions to what is going on. It is important.

Well said. The last election should have been a wake up call to those in office. We the People consent to be governed but we no longer feel the folks in D.C. are looking after our best interest. Politics was never meant to be an occupation... it started with business men taking time away from their business to represent the people in his area. Now we have career politicians that seem to look after only the wellbeing of their affiliated party....on both sides. And when did it become a party vs party fight? On both sides of the isle, it seems the current stance is 'you're either with us, or against us.' And that is sad..... I have contended for years that the two party system is broken. One that pits American against American come election time. BOTH sides have pros and cons in their platforms, but they refuse to acknowledge the merits differing opinions.
