The Importance of Productive Outrage
We're too busy being outraged about, you know, what some celebrity said or who is being a douchebag on Twitter recently. And so that is sapping all of the outrage that could be used for actual productive things like saving babies lives to just fight in the culture wars. There was a woman who shed like 150 Twitter followers and tweeted some shitty joke before traveling to Africa. That's one of those intentionally offensive jokes that is in bad taste. I don't really get being offended on behalf of other people. But it's probably definitely offensive to somebody, but do they have toreally get offense? We should definitely do an episode on dispassionate war.
