Hmmm... I've had this rant to people before, apparently it's rather selfish of me to want to wake people up as they are apparently happy to live in ignorance...(exactly the reality too disturbing thing)

I dont really know to be fair if it was a rant at myself, those around me or society generally. Definitely a large slab of the latter. My closest friends are less prone to this kind of thing although not immune.

If you feel slightly ashamed that is bad, but if you do something about it thats great !

I think it was motivated by a memory of a conversation with a friend a few weeks ago about some meaningful issue type stuff, followed by another one a few days later in which it became clear he hadnt really been listening the first time. I find that kind of thing really offensive and annoying, Grrrr.
