Something happens. People get upset. But then others who are out to defend the indefensible, start to lure people into bickering about the details. When they are successful - we wind up missing what was center to the whole event - we lose sight of what went wrong. When that happens, people escape responsibility, victims see no justice, and the problem never goes away...
The next time someone tries to change the subject or clog the issue with unimportant details - move on. It's just a tactic to avoid admission of the obvious.
i lvoe your work. but your concepts are brilliant to me. i dont quite catch the meaning here "But then others who are out to defend the indefensible, start to lure people into bickering about the details."
i feel a little stupid, but im curious now.. could you please explain it a little?

This reminds me of one of my favourite lines from a Paul Simon song...
"Someone could walk into this room and say, 'Your life is on fire... It's all over the evening news...all about the fire in your life on the evening news...' "
Which I know really has nothing to do with the actual point of this piece. It just started playing in my head. You illustrate a good point. It frustrates me to see how often people (no matter the issue) refuse to see what is around them and refuse to hear it explained and deny its existence wholeheartedly.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.
