Just Click Retweet, It’s Easier

Just Click Retweet, It’s Easier

Just click retweet, or like, or love, or whatever else.

It’s true, think about it.

Everyone wants to just click retweet.
Nobody wants to take the time to read the Hoover Institute’s position paper.

Everyone wants to talk about fairness.
Nobody wants to take four statistics classes.

Everyone likes a good quote.
Nobody likes basic logic and math.

Everyone wants an easy solution.

Nobody wants to do the hard work.

Shame on all of us for not educating ourselves and demanding more.

Voters claim they want substance and detailed position papers, but what they really crave are cutesy cat videos, celebrity gossip, top 10 lists, reality TV shows, tabloid tripe, and the next fucking Twitter message.

-Congressman X, The Confessions Of Congressman X
