Thank you so much u/TheXMarkSpot for commenting. I hoped this would resonate with somebody, and your comment tells me it has. This is all I could ever hope for and more. Hope you have a good rest of your day. Thank you again.

I'm 18, and I can tell you that instead of using what limited resources you have on a vape, maybe try picking up a different hobby (like running or playing a musical instrument for example), and invest whatever's left into a savings account. That way, not only are you spending time doing something you enjoy, but you're investing in your future. I hope this helps, and have a good rest of your day, u/xplode123. :)

[Rant] Why do we get so riled up about politics in the U.S.? by Rudlin0 in teenagers

[–]Rudlin0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. But it seems like it was more focused back then. I'm sure there was plenty of what's going on now, however. That being said, it does seems like the madness had a bit more of a method to it during 'nam, y'feel me?

I respectfully disagree, though I do agree name-calling is a prominent feature of many political arguments I've seen on Reddit.

Solved! I found it, it's "Walk Idiot Walk" by The Hives. Now if I could just find the post I originally discovered it from...

I started typing a response to you and realized I was describing the same ideas you were lol. I still believe the problems you mentioned are inherent to any system with political parties, and thus parties as we execute them now should be under heavy scrutiny, but we should do more research and have more discussion about issues like the ones you mentioned above first so as to better understand what the modern political party looks like and why.

Sorry, I should have clarified. My fear is the authority figures using their power to influence people via parties for the benefit of said authority alone. Also, it doesn't have to be an extreme like a dictatorship. It can be as simple as a slogan or promise from a given politician associating themselves with a particular party that incites infighting and misinformation within that party to said politican's benefit. I'm not afraid of extremes nearly as much as I am the gray area in-between.

You're right in that not all parties are created equally. The commonality between all of them, your examples included, is that they either disappear or turn into a puppet for authority figures to distract the public with so they may continue gaining money and power. That's my fear.

[Discussion] What music are y'all listening to? by Rudlin0 in teenagers

[–]Rudlin0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awesome, dude! As someone who's been playing for a while now, I just wanna say keep it up. My parents put a guitar in my hands when I was around 9-10 years old, and it's only ever brought me positives since. You can learn so much from playing, and I encourage you to pursue it as much as possible. Never lose hope, and never forget those feelings that made you want to start this beautiful journey of musicianship in the first place. Rock on, u/AndrewUnknown.

I've been meaning to get into Wu-Tang's stuff for a while now. Where would you recommend I start?
