Instead of adding to the list of groups & types of people one detests as one gets older, how about subtracting from it? One isn't affected by everything, one isn't required to have an opinion on everything. One also doesn't need to identify oneself with all the various demographics each of us are categorized as being part of.
Every time I vote, I remind myself that I am one vote. That is really all I am. One vote. I am not voting as three or five or ten different categories of people.
"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be." Thomas Jefferson
