Rant for the Evening

I understand that some people have issues that they're concerned about, and they want to share these issues. Hell, I'm one of those people.

But they need to realize that most people don't care. And most people aren't going to be bought by facts and numbers and words and presentations. Because they've seen and heard it all before. And the most that's going to happen is they're going to think about it for five minutes, and then find something else to interest them.

The only people who are going to think about this issue are the people who probably already care or who already care about a different issue. And to the latter, the issue that they care about is probably more important.

It really bugs me when somebody thinks they know about their issue, but they really don't. And they really don't even care about the issue they're presenting about. Or they're hypocritical. Like, if I ask you a question about your issue and you read one website and give me a shitty answer and then tell me to read this website, and I do more research and more digging than you do and find the opposite of your answer, I'm sorry. Please, do not try to fool me. I care about global issues, I know how to use the Internet, and my number one favourite thing to do is research. Especially issues.

Next time, inform yourself before you try to inform others. Thanks.
