When I was in college, the last thing I thought about was politics. Even more so in high school. Sure, there was election hype during the primaries. However, to try and say I ordered my identity and everyday consciousness around politics would have been absurd. That was too busy skateboarding playing video games and having fun.

When did this shift happen where people’s lack of religious attendance slowly shifted into the political realm and their morality and politics became one? Why are there people right now below the age of 30 obsessing about politics nonstop? Why not choose happiness and have fun?

    Anyone with a brain who is a member of the working class should be immediately and innately political as soon as they are exposed to even the slightest fraction of society. Everything is political, and it’s politics that dictate that they will largely work for the benefit of a vanishingly small class of parasites until they die an early death because politics also dictate that their healthcare will be unaffordable, as will their education, etc.

    If you respond with some “oh you’re just victim blaming yourself” shit like you did the other guy i’ll upgrade calling you a loser to saying you should be actively murdered
