I think that politics being overbearing is hopefully just a trait of the election in the US, now that it's over hopefully the US politics fanatics can move on to bigger and better things. Fingers Crossed.
Oh, man. Where is that "living under a rock" video when I need it?
I may be optimistic, it didn't seem to be that way prior to the US election cycle, then again though, there were less people at that time.
In short, the US is in the process of being turned into a full-on oligarchy or a dictatorship. There will be quite a bit of conversation about politics for the foreseeable future.
Trump is also actively antagonizing almost all of the rest of the world. It's not a US-only subject anymore.
Plus conversation about the inevitable calamities.
Just remember, all. There’s nothing to fear but fear itself. And the horrors.
The world was different before their elections.
It's not even something you can escape by changing your community. We will have some more time of the US dominating the discussion. Here's hope it's not a lot more time, but we will have some.
