Been Thinkin' 'Bout The Government

Conflict has riddled my frontal cortex yet again.

The other night I was watching conspiracy videos about the Illuminati and chemtrails with my male doppelganger. His response towards the subject matter seemed much more passionate and angry than my own.
I mean I get it, shits sketchy.
People lie, conspiracies exist, we're all being subliminally controlled my powerful organizations who dictate how things are run across the globe. I literally shrugged after being presented with that information. "So", I thought to myself "It's not like we can do anything to stop this."
Later, I thought about why I was so lax about it all.
My 16 year old self would have thrown a chair at me now. Have I really become the type of person who just accepts their fate and takes a giant gulp of  "the cool aide"? What happened to the thirst for knowledge and justice I once had?
I think I've just given up on changing the world.
With age, I've developed a grapefruit size malignant tumor of passivism that is slowly taking over my body.

Shit.
