Aw, heck. Someone talkin' sense.The Brigadier wrote:I'd like to add a sentiment here... I think that actions as quiet and simple as posting this kind of an honest discourse about politics and stuff on a message board-- even an improv collective message board!-- are valid actions towards realizing the more equitable system that we want.
I think that diligent activists are doing their thing, armchair pundits are doing their thing, cynical idea people who occasionally step forward with a burst of unorthodox activism are doing their thing, and even non-voters are doing something (in the sense that in the 2000 presidential elections, the majority of eligible voters in America voted for Nobody over the dubious options of Bush or Gore, and that phenomenon-- voting for Nobody-- means something in the um... arena of mass consciousness, for lack of a less pretentious term).
Simply put, we're all in this together, we all have something unique to offer, and we pretty much do what we can.
Also, we in this collective are, for the most part, comics, writers, and performance artists. Those are great avocations with which to help stoke the fires of Revolution.
