It will surprise nobody who reads this journal to realize that I keep up a lot on current events, mostly those involving conflict

A very nice piece of pontification, and so many little details for mental chewing of the cud. In order to move the world and humans into the future it requires, muddled history must be clarified and realised, in order to face and find effective and lasting solutions to benefit future generations. Much of the chaos in this world is very dependent on unresolved history of lies, which is why human ignorance plays a significant primary role in creating and multiplying and enlarging problems

It's hard to tell about verbal indignation - I think that if that's the only means available to communicate displeasure that it's about the only possible answer. I thin that as an economy of effort it's acceptable - you can express verbal indignation about something that you're not entirely committed to. The differentiation between that and ego masturbation seems to be when the person in question can do more and declares that this is their primary field of interest. Or perhaps its an act of confusion - but humans seem to find it easy to ignore complaints by someone who doesn't back their words up with actions if they have the ability to.

The problem with ignorance is that it gets continually pervasive, since there's no way to learn everything, and people seem to fall farther and farther behind all the time. And nobody likes to learn about things that they're already wrong about.
