no you dont

I’m 28 and didn’t really follow politics that much until the past four years or so. I literally despise liberals and liberal policies with a passion.

Not sure it matters. None of the elected officials represent the middle class anymore. It's all special interests and corporations. Meanwhile we fight amongst ourselves.

I never cared or paid attention until…well, I still don’t give a shite and I’m 41. Buncha bat shite crazy individuals that care about politics more than themselves and own families.

but I hate people. I pretty much always say frick a person. Regardless of political affiliation, frick em all.

I followed very, very closely anything relating to politics until this last presidential election.

Now politics and the news are dead to me. I couldn’t care less.

I pay attention in a certain sense. Mainly, I recognize that neither party represents my interest and are both in the pockets of the elite, foreign and domestic.

Politics has infiltrated everyone’s lives. It’s everywhere. You won’t be able to discard it much longer if you are because of the globalist takeover. The next 10 years are going to be very tumultuous

I probably care less with each passing year. Was pretty into it in my early 20s but I don’t really invest anything into it now. Only way I know what political shite is going on day to day is when I see thread titles on here.

I used to really get into politics, but the older I’ve gotten the more I want to move further away.

I’ve come to the assumption both sides lie through their teeth and will say or do whatever it takes to gain power. It’s a constant game of tug of war and it’s truly shocking to me how many people slurp up everything these politicians say and the mental gymnastics they have to go though to not see the hypocrisy in both sides. It seems like having a healthy discussion or debate isn’t even possible any more and everyone just wants to reaffirm their confirmation biases.

I can’t even imagine letting politics dominate my life or the people who put party over country. It was disappointing seeing so many liberals rejoice in people losing their jobs during the pandemic just because a republican was in the White House. It was also disappointing seeing cities burn to the ground all summer in 2020 from the left which was then followed by the idiocy of some Trump supporters on Jan. 6.

Politics seem to be bringing out the worst in people so I’m trying to move further and further away from all the negativity and focus on the good in the world.
