Do you ever think people burn up their energy being outraged by things that actually don't have any affect on them, simply because they can?

Getting outraged is a short term solution to hopefully a long term goal of actually talking about difficult topics and finding actual solutions instead of the continued divisiveness.

In other words, outrage can empower, when rights are being stepped on. But it is super important to channel that energy in a healthy way that will actually create change for the better.
