It is admittedly a "yeah, but..." sort of position.
On one hand, it's like a fixed horse race for an amateur gambler. If I don't know WHICH horse is going to win (having no inside knowledge), then I have as good a chance at a random win as anyone.
Sure, it's random but takes no real effort to let it run its course. The "ignorance is bliss" method.
On the other hand, it would take lots of work, knowing people (unsavory to be sure), all in hopes of changing my chance at success. Knowledge, work, only a chance at making any difference at all.
So, in the Change the World, You Asshole method you are fomenting, I lack the drive to do more than assume the world is evil as hell... then enjoy the ride as best I can.
My Angels (should they exist) do not impel. I have a sad resignation that I don't wear on my sleeve. One of the little bastards sits on my shoulder once in a while though (I think...).
He's there. You oughta know by now.
And he's the only one - you don't rate two (unless you wanna talk about that other, darker one).
As to the rest of it, I'd as soon speak the truth as walk around in pessimism and cynicism. I think if we all started speaking the truth we would stop electing liars and be citizens of a republic again instead of subjects of an empire.
