Polideology

     They seem so consumed by the smallest, microscopic aspects of their lives. I know I'm not the first to say this or think this, but: You are all the same, a recreation of what you have already seen, read, or been told in which you regurgitate to one another, (of course) passing it off as your own. Our current "Y" Generation seems to be asleep in a Facebook coma, only waking up to indulge their twitter munchies. My current generation seems to be one big flock, all thinking, acting, and speaking the same way, while internally competing for attention. You have become the real drone, asleep to the reality of the world around you, while destroying communication efforts one post at a time. 

     Many people around me today seem to live in their own virtual world to get away from the their real life problems or situations they feel they can't change. Personally, I disagree. I do never want to just simply "live a life" via existing, I want to create one. For example: People work to live, and then live to work, in this awful cycle of hell that they themselves, have created. They are consumed with their daily to do lists, miserable job they refuse to leave, and who said what on Facebook. Coming home from school or work, the virtual cries for attention begin. "I can't believe what happened today!" (Vague, hook, line.....) while a virtual friend rushes to comment, "What happened?" (....annnnd sinker). They live within this routined day they created and ritualistically stick to. Maybe it's just me and I hate routines and society's entitled sense of attention? Everyone seems to forget that they can literally change any situation they want via some basic principles of changing thoughts, perception and actions, of which fortunately do not require any social networks. How many times have you heard someone complain about something and simply say they "can't" make their life better for whatever obstacle may stand in their way? 

     We literally create our life by the very thoughts we think and the actions we take. I laugh hearing fellow college friends reside in their "college student world." Yes, a college student myself, but, the difference between them and I, is the fact that they just simply exist in that small bubble, while I actually attempt to live outside of it. They create their own problems and have befriended procrastination which only helps them to exist in that said bubble while stressing over exams, and pulling all nighters Lets not forget about their ever growing love for #twitterbeef and the personal lives of others via Facebook timelines and shared statuses. Hosting keg parties on the weekends and their own pity parties during the weekdays.Some of them don't even have a job, nor do they engage in any other activities but school. Yet, somehow, someway, the world is always "out to get them." I'm not too sure how a world they seem to ignore is always out to get them. I'll be the last person to say that social networking is bad in and of itself, but it can easily be a factor into the instant gratification and self entitlement mentality of the current generation. Instead of a platform of communication, it's a platform to beg for attention.

Its been months of bouncing the very thought of having a political blog back and forth in my brain before I actually created one. What seemed to always hold me back was being overly interested in whether or not there would be readers interested. Politics is such a dirty word that receives a multitude of reactions and looks - I love it! Each blog post will range between politics and society, and the weird things the human race seems to do within those two categories. My goal is to break down and analyze political ideologies (cue blog name), people in society, and how the world works so you can sit back and mentally freak out about life....like I do....every day.
