Me neither. I seriously could not give less of a shit about modern politics. The world will end in a violent, humiliating fashion, and the meek will not inherit the earth. And if they do, the Bank shall repossess it.

I'm not american but i swear every other day on top of /r/all on Reddit there is a thread about someone indicting or testifying against Trump, but it's been going on for 2 years and still nothing happens.

I guess it makes sense if you care about US politics, but from the outside it looks like you all are walking in circles.

Politics and the news are nothing but ruses. I'm stupid enough to actually still vote, but I know it's a waste of time.

Think about it. No matter who wins, shit all stays the same. I've seen Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama and now Trump. Shit has always been how it was gonna be no matter who the damn names were. Big waste of time giving a shit.

You think you've got it bad? Try scanning the UK media for anything that isn't Brexit related. Ten years of silence on unabated, swingeing cuts to public services, a national housing crisis, increasing NHS waiting lists and the persecution of the disabled and infirm, instead they spent a great deal of focus on the legitimisation of polite racism via their own propelling of, and undue prominence given to, Nigel Farage etc. They were all okay with this at the time. Now it's gone pear shaped you can't move for fucking stupid middle class journalists howling at the terrifying prospect of JK Rowling's bastard offspring having to pay excessive data roaming charges during their gap year, BBC seemingly providing wall to wall, 24 hour coverage of some chin-stroking, double-barrel Oxbridge cunts pining for Tony Blair and rehabilitating John Major. Nauseating as fuck.

My man, i'm a Russian, i know everything about censorship, hiding that fact that government does all it can to exploit the people, creating random external enemies to maintain the sieged fortress mentality and unite people around the decrepit God-Emperor telling everyone how every country in the world wants to nuke Russia all while his friends and their children literally build palaces in those evil countries using tax and retirement fund money that the people never get while the goverment tells the retired that they're leeches and should be grateful for free healthcare.

Let's not turn this into a competition, the world sucks.

It's the same no matter where you are. At least in the UK, there is still a semblance of a welfare state. Try surviving without a job or insurance in the States.

I was hoping everything would have come crashing down by now. But here we all are still discussing the decisions of the real powers of the world who don't give a flying fridge about any of us...

Forget about the real powers of the world, no-one but our immediate family family and close friends (if we are lucky enough to have them)give a flying fuck about us.

I never knew my dad, have no siblings, and my mom died when I started school. I don't have any family or friends. That leaves the real powers of the world, and the decisions they make that impact so much, for me to be preoccupied with.

The best advice someone once gave me was that I shouldn't care about things I don't have control.

I can't do anything about politics in the US or in my country. Worrying about it would only bring me more pain, so I don't even read the news anymore.
