The human condition whereby the primal need for identity and trusted association, prove to be more important than objective, critical thinking; and the quest for goodness, righteousness, and truth. Often magnified by a parallel lust for control, capital, and power.
It’s tough to explain why politicians will put party before country; my only explanation is that it is an example of tribal ignorance.
To not be acknowledged by the person you really want to talk to. You know they are online but never try to give you a response. You start to feel sad and depressed emotions that they probably don’t care about you anymore. Then when they do reply back, it’s the most shortest reply. Then you become happy and don’t say anything about it because they atleast responded back to you so you text them like everything is ok.
