Too young to run for anything, sadly

I don't think it's naïve to think that doing anything I can to make change is better than doing nothing and complaining that I'll never make a change

I agree that it seems hopeless. I'm surrounded by people all day spouting propaganda nonsense talking points with no real attention given to conversations I have with them.

But nothing will ever change if everyone gives up. I think there is hope.

Politicians not entirely corrupted by donors are at least mainstream enough to be in the public eye these days, unlike a few years ago. Local exposure to actual reason may be the little push some of these people need to start considering the other side.

Does seem that way sometimes. Sadly it may be the only way to peacefully make meaningful change in this awful system...

Better to try to make change happen than give up I guess

Didn't even know that was the guy in the meme. Not using this format anymore thanks

Very valid. Still I think you'd be surprised how many of those people are uninformed and/or ignorant enough to be swayed by good enough talking points.

Trump won by tricking them that he was for their best interests. It can't be so hard to win while actually being for their best interests and not for wealthy donors.

 

I know it's not for everyone but I feel like people forget that if you get frustrated with politics these days, you can run for local office and make bigger changes than you think. Every little change helps, especially in a large town to small city where you can do campaigning without significant funding.

I doubt many people have the extra time for it, but if you're retired or passionate you can make a lot of difference in your local community.

Sorry I am an American and I'm not exactly sure the processes in this subject regarding other countries, but I imagine many are not too different.

I'm stupid, can someone explain to me how this is illegal? Like morally questionable I get, but how is it illegal?

They punched above their weight now the hit dog is hollering

I fear this may not be true, Israel's military is quite robust at the moment compared to Iran's not even considering the inevitable western support
