Freedom isn't free. It shouldn't be a bragging point that 'Oh I don't get involved in politics ' as if that makes someone cleaner. No that makes you derelict of duty in a republic. Liars and panderers in government would have a much harder time of it if so many people didn't insist on their right to remain ignorant and blindly agreeable.

I have such an extreme attitude about work where I can just completely be derelict of my responsibilities and then when I am not derelict I am completely indulged in it. I swing pretty wildly from the two extremes.
