Do any of these folks protesting about dapl and flint know what's going on where they live...

In terms of pollution and the environment?

I've noticed that half or a good number of these people trying to throw their opinions and protest are real ignorant about what these very same issues they are talking about in general. it's more of them trying to look good as a person, boosting their ego and all this shyt centered around insecurity than actually standing up against something. why should anybody take them seriously if they don't even get involved locally with where they live to see if there's anything going on? How could somebody be worried about dirty water in flint or a pipeline in North Dakota and oil spills when they don't even know if they live on a dump or a toxic waste site? There's a lot of toxic wastes sites in America and the world. As they say, the real and the fake always expose themselves.

It's called empathy..
Sure there are people that are out there because "it's the hip thing to do"" but what makes you think that others are not involved in their local government or activist in their own communities....
When you make assumptions..

That would be you. Dropping into a thread to insult me without even saying anything on the subject. You seem to get off on putting down other people while at the same time, exposing how little you know.

Good point. It's clear as day because you never see any of them saying anything about what's going on locally on their platform when they have the chance to raise awareness. You also can't find them at certain things either when these issues come up because they aren't aware of it. I find it weird how someone could be talking about standing rock and showing off on social media going to such rally have nothing to say about the superfund site that is taking forever to clean up or any places suspected of being contaminated with waste and etc locally. How they got the time to raise awareness about something that most people are aware of but not the time to speak about something that most people are unaware. As I said, you can see who is who.

I personally think folks are getting defensive because this applies to them. Yeah it's an assumption but as they say, it starts from home before you go abroad.
