At this point I just stay confused because even when I look up what liberal means it's not used that way it seems. I'll never understand politics, I just wanna enjoy life.
I hate to break it to you but there's a malignant group of people using politics to make sure you don't enjoy your life.
Unfortunately opting out only ensures you get taken advantage of. In order to enjoy life, these people need to be stopped, and knowing what they are up to and why is a big part of doing that
This is a problem across the world FWIW, a primary goal of the international right wing cohort of politicians is to keep people from knowing about politics. As soon as anyone gets their head around the basics, they see right through the lies they make.
The antidote to right wing politics is simply knowledge.
They would not be able to garner enough support if enough people understood a vote for a right winger will, statistically speaking, categorically make their life worse.
