My guess it that either becuase they trust the government, believe the damage will somehow be worth it (or just personal gain), or ignore it all due to the untrue conclusion that there's nothing they can do about it and it's best not to worry (so like a coping mechanism). Definitely does not justify anything though.
Luckily not everyone is ignoring the world's problems, and even we have a choice on what to do about the stuff going on
Yeah, that's right! We'll be who we are instead of what people want to see. And personally I don't wear dresses that much either lol, nor have I never really done makeup, and hell yes do I live for sports! Amazing poem!
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Do you see the battle march, In every step I climb?
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Hope you don’t see the bitter pain, That hides behind my eyes.
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Hope you don’t catch the resentful rage, That burns within my mind.
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Trying not to show the hurt, Won’t let you see the memories that bind, They haunt me every night, But it's best for you, I keep it all inside.
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Know that nothing matters more, Than what you see on the outside.
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Won’t explain how my trust is broken, How all the words feel like lies.
Don’t believe a thing they say, Count the times I’ve been betrayed, Watch as they stumble once again, Breaking promises they can’t defend. And I see it’s time to give up hope, And close this door, Letting go.
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Swallowing sorrow, Toughening my heart inside.
Pretend I’m alright, Act like I’m just fine, Reminding me you don’t care, And this numbness is all mine.
Thank you so much for your support! It is so nice to see people also feeling the same way I do! :D
You are right
Thank you
