It can determine who will be my mortal enemies.

It was forced on us, we had no choice.

U.S. is turning into North Korea

No avoiding.

My country is neighbour to the scourge of the world.

Because someone who is pretending to be an ally, is starting a war with EU over Greenland and Iceland.

It is my burden to bear for being so extraordinarily virtuous.

I don't.

I absolutely don't care.

because humans create borders, different cultures, different countries, different values etc etc disgusting fact of life but it is what it is

it's like a clownshow, i find it entertaining

if you asked a year ago i would say it mattered. Now i know we have no representative government and everything is juice theater to keep the cattle in line.

I really dont, mainly because politicians and political candidates are all liars and will 180 on everything they claim they will do.

I think people who do focus on it really need to prioritize their lives more, it makes me think really about the people who talk here about it 24/7 like their family, partners and friends. Their personal life and relationships literally are getting neglected to talk about nothing as if their takes and them talking about it on here makes anything different or will affect anything.

What would you rather your partner or friend or family member to do? Spend all day talking politics online or spend time with each other and you know like actually live and make memories with you. The argument to be made is really it applies to everything online, but there are so many better things to talk about or to be discussed here that are much more entertaining and fun to discuss other than which liar has said they will do such and such next lol

Also personally it bores me immensely, discuss it if you want but its ultimately pointless is what i am saying

We just wanted to play video games.

Then we were told that video games are political.

So now we have to play politics.

And gamers certainly don't like to lose.
