I agree to an extent, I think the term lost the original meaning.

My main complaint with the state of politics is too little thoughts and reflection. I think cable news, talk radio, and social media are the root cause.

Reading a daily newspaper or viewing the nightly news gives you a full day to think things over. We are more driven by emotion as a result of never having time to digest and reflect.

They tend to.

Agreed, and not just politics, too little thought and reflection period.

Fear will override almost anything, which is why we're being pounded with it from every angle. Time away maybe, disconnected.
