Quick Thought: Annoyance

Has the world today become to unbearable? Has the rise of our online social structure made the world an irritating mess?

Social media is akin to a gun, both can be used for recreation, a force for good, or a force for evil and hatred. We use it as a weapon for our reactionary nature without any recognition of the consequences. Liberal SJW's (Social Justice Warriors), Conservative SJW's, and Mid-Range SJW's, they spout their world view and try to dictate it others; I will admit, I have likely pushed my ideas in a such a way on Facebook.

We have created a reactionary society, sometimes it's good for bringing an important issue to bare. However, on many occasions, our reactionary society will move in hatred against something or someone without thinking or understanding the full story. How can you fly into a rage over a clip of an interview without seeing the thing?

I have threatened numerous times to deactivate my social media accounts, I will probably never do that, to many connections. It's like a defensive reaction to arguments that drive me over my tolerance limit. Winston Churchill once said, "You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life." If your going to enter the battlefield of opinions, one needs to grow a thick skin, and that comes with time.

In conclusion, I would ask people over social media to consider their words before posting; not just in a grammatical sense but also in content. In this country we have the right to free speech, but it's important to exercise that right carefully and with consideration.

Thank you.

Quick Thought: Comey Fired

By now, we all know who FBI Director (former) James Comey is, and that as of yesterday, he was fired by President Trump. In all honesty, he would have been fired regardless of who would have won the election. Clinton blamed his investigation of her emails as a cause for her loss in the election. Despite that he called off the investigation and simply called Clinton incompetent, a logical assumption is that he would have either been fired or forced to resign.

Is this the end of Comey's involvement in the supposed Russia scandal? Congress could still call him back to testify in the investigation. This was probably a stupid move by Trump, in the public eye, it does it look like he is trying to cover up something, even if there was nothing there. He should waited till the investigation was over, frustrating as it probably was for him.
