I don’t get the apathy,I just don’t get it.

All liberals are on antidepressants.

Did that sound like too much of an over-generalized statement? I'm sorry. Let me correct it: ALL LIBERALS ARE ON ANTIDEPRESSANTS. There, that's better.

I’ll be darned——most informative. This paragraph jumped out at me-—

“Direct Effect

Serotonin directly affects frontal lobe projections that modulate initiative, curiosity, inhibition, and ability to focus. According to this view, as serotonin receptors are bombarded with increasing amounts of serotonin, these frontal lobe functions devolve into lack of motivation, disinterest, disinhibition, and poor attention “

Maybe that explains the apathy.
