Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

To be honest, if it were just me, I might not be so interested in politics. I honestly want everyone else's life to improve so maybe we can all enjoy each other just a bit more.

I'd like to know if she had the same opinion today. Post citizens united and our orangutan ex-prez

The problem is, that the the ones interested in it, use their votes as if it was a reality show. It's not a popularity vote. The right thing to do is not always popular, it's not always the best for you and it is not even always easy.

Unfortunately it becomes easy to start viewing politics as a game. Don't let it become entertainment.

Control is an illusion. Not being interested in politics means accepting the things you can't change to preserve your sanity.

I'm not interested in trying to punch the sea.
