It seems like the majority of people have no clue what is going on right now in this country. They just go on about their lives as if nothing at all is happening. I definitely get not stressing about this full time, but, at least for me, it has been hard to pay attention to much else.
Apart from people being oblivious, when they are shown information or told about what is going on, many just seem to shrug it off as if it is no big deal, like it won't affect them.
It has made me feel like I'm completely losing my mind. Most people that I talk to have no idea that the President is likely going to enforce the insurrection act or martial law. Many have no idea that China has heavily invaded our country.
And even when they are told about it...they still just shrug their shoulders.
Am I the only one that is dealing with this?
Normalcy bias. No one wants to know that their world is riding on lies. They just want to go back to normal. That’s why people are standing in line for the vaccine. They think the country will go back to “normal”.
As for the election craziness: the msm is NOT talking about it accept to imply that anyone questioning the results is a Russian troll or whatever.
Everyone I talk to is fairly based but the outskirts of my friend circle hits some liberals and they just “aren’t interested in my conspiracies”.
That's right. I feel this too, the urge to carry on as though everything is normal. It's just human nature and it's not even a bad thing necessarily, it kind of keeps human events from spinning out of control constantly.
But in a really serious crisis, it can prevent people from doing what needs to be done to survive. One thing I've learned from watching a lot of air crash investigation shows, you have to PAY ATTENTION to what is going on if you want to live in a life threatening situation.
