To be perfectly honest this is why I hate politics online. And when I say "this," y'all know what the hell I'm talking about. I was inundated with it all day. I know its an election year, I expect politics. But stop responding to every troll and idiot here to wind you up.

I block fools but I will also mute friends for a little while because my mental health has to be my top priority. If my mental health had to experience everyday here like today was here, I'd just pack up and leave. It was terrible. And as I said, I know the importance of politics.

I have a history degree. I believe in civic engagement, I vote in every election, I speak constantly on the importance of voting and being an important part of your local, state, national, and global world. You can't complain if you didn't do your part, or so the saying goes.

I recognized a fair share of people today mentioned watching the Lawrence O'Donnell clip. I thought it was utterly brilliant in many ways. But what I held onto the most after walking away from it, was people's incessant need for performance where politics are concerned.

That's all I see when I see troll posts and Bernie Bros, and "progressives", and The New York Times. Its not just an election year, its also awards season and the crowd is thick for Best Douche-hose in a political social media thread or best portrayal of the sky is falling by an internet blogger.

Its theater to these bots, trolls, and chaos agents who get joy from dragging reasonable people into arguments with them. I don't think its fair that we get egged on and attacked by them, but its the 21st century and too many people are invested in this psychological violence for it to just stop.

Having said all that, I've know since 1988, as a 10 year old, that I was a strong, blue collar, union supporting, pro-woman, pro-gay (it was called at the time) Democrat. I've never once been in the fence about who I was voting for in a general Presidential election.

So the political theater is a waste of my time...and has at times in the near past made me contemplate exit strategies. I never want to be there again so if that means turning off the goid along with the bad because the good insist on responding to every clearly orchestrated post, I'll do that.

It might get lonely here, just down to me following animal, art, and food pages, but my peace of mind & the pieces of my mind are worth that. I know its an election year, I know the routines and rhetoric, but I'm also sick to death of it. I'm not threatening to unfollow people, I'm just speaking.

And now I'm done speaking. Time has gotten away from me and my feet are in pain so I'm going to medicate, read some fanfiction, and go to bed. I thought of listening to some heavy metal for self-soothing but I'd be up until 1 in the morning trying to come down from rage to normal Montiese crazy.

I'm glad I missed all the politics. I work weekends where more people don't and have the time to be on social media all day. I get my mental health break while at work, surprisingly.

I get it. I have less freedom to play on my phone at this job than I did my last. And my office is pretty quiet so I get to listen to the sounds inside my mind, which is often calming in this quiet environment.

I’d be happy if politics was left over at Xitter, but I know that won’t happen. I need to start eliminating accounts from my list that are nothing but politics (not the occasionals, but literally nothing else.)

If those accounts follow me, I don't follow back. They can engage with me, we can converse and even become cool, but I don't want to look at all those post. Because 9 out of 10, their politics posts are a bunch of TFG articles or other negative things.

This thread is only going to become more relevant with time. There’s intense Russian psyops and this time there’s lots of help from inside the country. Keeping ourselves out of fight/flight/freeze is mission one. Thanks for the thread. 🙏

Something worth keeping in mind, Acey. We didn't come here to be their free entertainment, did we?

We're more of that when we engage with them instead of block and warn others of the behavior so they don't have to entertain them either.
