So for decades things have only deteriorated, you still still hold onto the idea that voting is the solution? Interesting. I think the ones who escape the mind virus that is picking a side in politics are the most disliked by the ones who remain trapped in that paradigm. Left and Right tend to be in agreement that independents are 'the worst'. Just look at what you have when it comes to issues that are pitted against those within the paradigm: Left: Palestine Good Diversity good My body my choice Equality for all All immigration is a human right Right: Israel Good Abortion bad Diversity is bad All immigration is bad Both sides believe voting fixes something, whereas, if you zoom out, you will see the Uniparty is in agreement on all the 'issues' that are there to continue with the creeping totalitarianism and they are totally made up. The issues which result in policies that do affect our lives: Climate Change is a problem -> more government intervention Pandemics are dangerous/real -> more government intervention Vaccines save lives -> more government intervention Money printing is the solution -> more government intervention War is good, and its your fault -> more government intervention Dissent is a 'danger to democracy' -> more government intervention Democracy is THEIR game. That why they never shut up about it. It is not there for the people on a societal level. If you pay attention, the unelected 'leaders' are only ever circle jerking and signalling to their own. When they say "we", "us" and "our", they are referring to themselves, not the people. It's a scam as the day is long, and things will never change until more people wake up to this reality.
