Description Fickle hearts and minds don't do wrong
Sitting behind a screen of apathy
They care about you but not for long
Numbed-down empathy given to all
A humanitarian effort by proxy
Not what is needed but what will enthrall
Telling you to just try to be strong
While they monitor armchair politics

Safely from their house.

This is so good and true... You are so right... Every problem people obsess with, is forgotten like a old toy, but never actually see anything through. Glad someone realises it...

I am glad you like mine too then. c: Yeah, I once heard that the best thing you could do when disaster strikes is to wait a month or two and then donate, since people have forgotten by then.

Its too true... and that's the sad part of it all.... It causes more damage giving people false hope by helping them for a little while and then just forgetting them once the craze and hype is over...

The breaking point for me to write this was being told I was a terrible person for not donating to Invisible Children, which is not even a good organization there are better, then the same people forgetting all about it in less then a week.

Thouse people are brain washers... About 1 or 2% of their money is actually used for the children... but most of it goes to their travel expenses. Sure, the message is good, but its a fad. Like Every other overly-extreme activist group, they create hype for about a month then its over... If you wanna help. Do it your self (you can never place your faith and peoples lives in others hands. It gives them too much control and egotistic power...)
