I’m 18, feel like I should be more educated on what going on, at least in America. Sick of NTs schooling me on politics. Do politics even matter though? Sounds stupid but what’s the point, I’ve never noticed a difference in my life with any different president. Politics don’t affect my life in the slightest so why bother?

I see both sides.

you got that from clavicular
I mean he’s right though

There’s a bell curve of politics knowledge where you think its boring and irrelevant if you know nothing about it, you think its important and fascinating if you know a bit and it becomes irrelevant again once you know enough to realise that you have absolutely zero influence on the systems that guide it which makes it boring theatre once more

No. It doesn’t matter. Yes it does effect your life in a huge way but there’s prob nothing that u can do abt it. Its good to know about it but not obsess over it since u can’t change shit

How I feel obsessing over politics altho Ik damn well that I won’t change shit. Even if I die and 100 more times nothing will change

vote for something that helps everyone, not just yourself.

and yes you cant change shit especially in the usa since a lot of politicians are taking aipac money, it’s gonna affect your life greatly since those taxes that go to israel and other useless shit couldve gone to healthcare, food for children in schools, education, railway system etc.

but americans are afraid of socialism so that’ll literally never happen
 
Yes because knowing how everything works is important, also because it ties into philosophy which is very important to learn, it’s gay not to be interested in them.

at least mfs are changing shit slowly, they just got mamdani in office as mayor and if u live in cali you should vote for ramsey robinson
