I know I'm upsetting the boy scouts in here for "nOt dOiNg mY CiVic dUtY".... But, I don't even care enough to vote anymore. In local, state or national elections. I literally do not give a frick.

Trump didn’t get shot for you to sit on your arse and let the libs continue to destroy the fabric of our once great nation.

I still care but the lion's share of political discourse is trying to explain things logically to extremely emotional people who have positioned themselves at a political pole and suffer from partisan brain rot, where they can only discuss politics relatively to their perceived out group/enemy.

I don't really care but I'll vote for Trump. I won't vote for my congressman or senator because they consistently vote against my wishes so frick them.

This is very true. It’s all narrative first and then throw any shite against the wall and call it proof that supports said narrative. Reality is slipping away(for some it’s fully gone already).

This is what the democrats want. It's why they keep everyone in churn. It gives them control.

I don't let politics or religion anger me as much as most folks. I don't blanket indict one group based on politics, religion or color. I believe a free market place of ideas makes is better and appreciate other people's views.

I don't want it shoved down my throat like MSB and the WNBA or ESPN and LeBron, but at a respectable level, I can appreciate a difference of opinion..

I do mostly oil and gas stuff so business is actually better when an administration is picking on us instead of letting us run wild and drop prices to zero. Kinda like gun dealers I guess. Basically I don’t care.

I don't care because we aren't a state that picks national politics.

I get what you're saying. When every election is "the most important election of your lifetime" it gets pretty tiring. Especially when none of those elections end up making a significant impact on your life anyway.

On the plus side, it's so easy to trigger the frick out of both the left and the right nowadays that you can have some fun and then just vote third party.

I get tired of politics and I try not to spend as much time on it anymore. It can be discouraging. That said, I try to stay relatively informed and I still vote in most elections.

Amen. Makes life much more enjoyable. Bonus points for playing both sides on sensitive issues.

I couldn’t give two shits. It’s two political parties comprised of lawyers fighting for their own personal power. Zero to do with what’s best for America.

If they’re not using our tax dollars to sue each other or investigate each others family trees, they’re finding a way to prop up their buddies or protect their gravy train.
