“Direct” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there

What an alarming number of people fail to realize: everything is politics. This apparent separation is purposeful and is one of many tools that the wealthiest 1% use to keep the rest of us divided and distracted.

I have a relative who has been on medicaid on and off who “doesn’t pay attention to politics”. I frequently explain current events to them- like efforts to cut medicaid that may cause them to lose their coverage.

The obliviousness (or complacency, in many cases) of some people is unbelievable.
