Did I mention I hate how blatantly political life in America has become now? It feels like everyone is talking over each other.

I spent a lot of time thinking about how all this craziness started, but Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire" always rang in my head. These problems were always burning somewhere, somehow. It just became incredibly amplified over the past few years. 

I can't have a normal conversation with many people these days without sensing some kind of trigger they have. "Oh, Palestine and Israel? You're stupid for supporting that side. The side I'm supporting is the righteous side. I'm right on this, you're wrong." Of course, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but there's no room for nuance anymore in this political climate. Everyone thinks they're the 100% good guy, and the other side is the 100% bad guy. Such childish perceptions honestly. I didn't think adults could be like this, but here we are.  

I don't really have a point to this post. Just sadness and anger at the way things are.
