must be nice
- davidktr 3y agoI started seing politics the same way: lol don't care. I used to consume loads political news, followed the developments within the national parties, tried to understand in good faith the reasoning behind various positions. You know what? None of this matters. Nothing I'll ever do, say, think, will ever convince a politician of anything. I have 0, zilch, none whatsoever influence on politics, regional, state, national, supranational. Public politics is for show only. The real deals are done behind closed doors. I don't need these people, and they don't need me (except my money, of course).

- splendor_spoon 3y agoFor many people it is the fact their lives are seriously impacted by the political outcomes these gerrymandered elections precipitate. You know, like the government making their personal medical decisions rather than their doctor.
- nh23423fefe 3y agoIs there anyone who isn't seriously impacted by the government? It seems like you are just restating my position.
