From KiA's own u/Dwarvenhobble. While I'm more of a pragmatic optimist, or at least anti-nihilist, it's still worth reading.

For those looking for a TL;DR:

The whole thing and the whole push to me just reeks of trying to force the issue on a number of subjects and not allowing people to just be neutral or disconnect for a moment. The neutrals are people they either want one side or to be allowed to fight them. They see people being neutral as a problem.

For some people there apparently is no disengaging allowed. No breaks allowed. Except in reality when they themselves disengage and don't think about the politics of everyday life and or the suffering of others. Adopting the mindset of perpetually caring about everything means even going to the toilet should have you thinking about those in other countries not lucky enough to have running water and proper sanitation. You can almost bet people who demand people perpetually care honestly only care for their pet issue, they entirely ignore any other issue from any other groups quite often even if they would likely agree with the issue. The reason is perpetually caring about issues others suffer constantly on top of your own issues is very much the road to madness. Humanity has to compartmentalise sometimes and forget how bad things may be in other areas of the world. It doesn't mean you don't care about said issues just because you're not perpetually thinking of those issues and pretending otherwise just makes you seem like a sanctimonious smeg head who is just using this as an excuse to try and prove yourself better than everyone else or an excuse to take shots at others. Or in the case of others you're just trying to settle old score, possibly even old scores between nations.*blows raspberry in the direction of France*

Commas. Use them.

DONT GET YOUR ENTERTAINMENT FROM OTHER PEOPLE OR YOU WILL SUFFER TOTAL MIND DEATH (jk but actually not jk)
