conversation regarding politics transpired a few days ago

me: oh, you're so unpolitical.

friend: politics is for people with no imagination.

me: no it's not, it's the only thing that changes the world.

friend: so what's your grand plan for changing the world?

me: i don't have one. i just want to be aware of things and not be a mindless fuck.

friend: am i a mindless fuck?

me: no, but you just sounded like one.

friend: i love how you're sounding so condescending right now.

me: yeah sure.
