God, I hate this era of journalism.
“Haha yes, this will get them angry and then they will click”
As a white affluent person living in NJ of which federal politics rarely ever affects me. This is the ultimate attack.
>Hersh calls this *political hobbyism*. There are a lot of you reading this who probably spend a lot your time consuming political podcasts, reading political blog posts, and posting about politics online. None of that is bad in and of itself! **But if you don’t ever do anything concrete – if you don’t show up at city council meetings, canvass for local politicians, join local political clubs, etc – then you don’t actually care about political power. You just enjoy politics as entertainment.**
That’s a fair point IMO.
You didn’t have to expose your own mod team like that
Prior to all these immigration and USCIS cuts, that was probably true on some level. I felt like I cared, but maybe some psycho analytical shit doesn’t bear that out. Now I have an immigrant wife. The caring is almost certainly there.
