Take a deep breath, look around you then let out a sigh... Yea you can sense that right? It's politics in the air and it is dwelling over us like a thick fog it seems. You become distracted and blind to what is really going on it can be easy to be baited into left versus right thinking. What can be even harder to cope with is knowing you can think above that but you find yourself surrounded by shallow thinkers. The election just has that sense to it and perhaps it's just my perception. A sense that no matter who wins the election that things still remain the same. The only difference is we are left with more divide amongst each other. Is that the purpose of elections to divide people? Often times I see people attacking others because of their views. I guess it's the same thing with relgion in a lot of ways. This is like bullying to me and we see it more online now a days because of vast social media networks. We can hide behind a keyboard and say what we want and people do take advantage of that when it comes to politics. I have to ask why do people advertise and share their political views online through social media? What is the purpose, what does one get out of it? It just seems "self-serving" to me.
