Tired…

I can’t take it anymore. More specifically, people. Not all people, mind you, but the masses. I’m tired of turning on my radio/tv/web browser and seeing what the latest RIAA news is or what MS has recently done to screw everyone over and no one caring. I’m tired of it.
I tire of the glazed looks I get when I tell people that they’re losing their rights. They don’t care and it serves nothing more than to get my blood pressure up. I don’t sleep well at night because of thoughts about what’s wrong in the world. My life is suffering too much to concern myself with it anymore. Let the sheep be led to slaughter for all I care.
Despite the little voice in my head that tells me that I need to help fight these problems, I feel like I can do nothing. Writing to Congress has yielded nothing but letters of thanks or claims they have no idea what I’m talking about. It’s very frustrating.
Consider this my white flag of surrender. Let the country go to hell in a handbasket. Many are walking willingly anyway through acts of ignorance or apathy.
Oh, I’m still blogging, BTW, I just probably won’t rant that much anymore.

I still care about these things, too, so there’s at least two of us writing letters. But it is amazing and frustrating that most people either don’t understand or care.
Geez, you’re quick. What are you, stalking me?
Funny! Nah, it’s coincidence. I read when I read. Usually in the a.m. but obviously not always.
I, too, have sent too many letters to count with the same exact responses. I’ve even gotten nasty replies back from congressmen. I haven’t given up yet, but I have been as discouraged as you quite frequently!
It’s just difficult to try and let your voice be heard when…your voice isn’t heard.
