Having a hard time giving a damn really.

I'm actually giving a lot of thought to bailing on internet political sites for a number of reasons but the primary one is that you never really know who you're talking to, nor do you know whose interests it serves for posting your opinions.

For all I know, and for anyone else really knows, all of the various political sites could be nothing more than control mechanisms to guide people to doing absolutely nothing about anything that's coming down the way. A means to take the fire out of people's souls by giving them a place to lament their loss of freedom, and do nothing about it.

It's easier to piss and moan on an internet forum than it is to call your congressmen, or senators, or protest in front of their offices.

I think it's why I'm done posting.

I think you've just defined the purpose of Talk Radio, not internet forums.

I hear ya. But I think that what TTMA is suggesting is that just like talk radio, sites like this keep people talking and not doing.

Of course the big thing is what does one actually do now?

That's certainly true, but I think it's because people have no idea what to do that makes these sites thrive.

For example, I vote for a proposition. It passes. The next day the other side finds a judge to slap an injunction on it while they try to overturn the election results. This happens in my state every single election, and most of the time the other side prevails against the people's vote.

So what are we supposed to do? As long as most people are comfortable, they'll just sit and take it.
