Useful anger

Yesterday’s post was written with a certain amount of anger. I hate it when people, no matter what their political affiliation, decide that they have the right to become tyrants and start to dictate and micro-manage the lives of others, especially when they do so in a cruel and careless way.

It’s all well and good to vent anger, but ultimately anger alone is not going to help anything. The real goal is to channel that anger, to take back the freedom to simply live our own lives that scary fanatics are trying to take away from us. This principle applies whether those fanatics are on the Left or the Right.

If you think someone in political office is trying to take away your right simply to live your life in peace, you need to vote them out of office this coming November. But that’s not enough. You also need to pro-actively discuss that need with others, and give either time or money, or both, to help make that happen.

Your vote still matters in this country, even though there are bad actors spreading a conspiracy that all election outcomes they don’t like have been rigged. Don’t let them get away with it.
