Telling someone to grow up? Sammys advice was dead on and your response proved it. You sound a little triggered. But while we are back on the subject of telling people to compartmentalize their opinions of how the world works as if there is some kind of virtue in that...I mean, constantly harping on politics all the time can obviously get tiring, but pretending that walling off how certain things in our lives effect others is foolish at the least, and possibly dangerous. I especially disliked the part of Boombox's screed where he ends it with "can't do anything about it anyways." Well, at the very least, you can bitch to people on the internet about it, but be it politics or sport fandom, there are multiple obvious things to be done about it. If some guy on the internet finds it convenient to his lifestyle it to walk around with blinders about its different aspects, it doesn't follow that I should do the same, or that I should even respect it. Boombox is happy and fancies himself noble because he chooses to ignore negatives aspects of the world at his convenience. How nice.
