1 year agoI agree with you 100% that it’s a sad thing going through these areas and seeing the state of things. However I do not think that they shouldn’t be able to vote, they are citizens of this country just like you an I are. Even though I vehemently disagree with their opinions and choices of representation, I don’t see any good coming from restricting a citizen’s right to vote. It has a similar energy to when the fascists have been suggesting raising the voting age to 25, and I’m not for any of it. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not defending any of their belief systems or culture war bs, but just like you and I have a voice, they should too (unless its hate speech or threats, then foh with that)
I like to use Brian Eno’s ambient series of albums for reading! Music designed to be “ignored” makes for a more focused reading session for me. I would encourage anyone who is easily distracted by other types of music to give it a try.
