Although I know it's my civic duty to keep up to date with politics, in order to maintain an informed opinion and vote responsibly, I have officially reached saturation point. This neverending political horror show is devouring everything. I've never felt more helpless.
Don't tell me I'm not helpless, or that my voice counts - it doesn't. We're all at the mercy of rich men with bloated egos and corrupt agendas. Marches and protests are ignored, while the greedy hoover up as much power and wealth as they can. This is the Iraq war all over again.
Politics is a dirty business, but this is about as filthy as it gets.
The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.
And the worst continue to press the levers that bring us closer and closer to economic disaster, just to swell their own profits.

There is obscene wealth to be made in building a country; but even more money to be made in burning it down. We're watching a sect of self-interested and bigoted people gleefully pulling apart the best of us, politically, socially, economically.
It's like living in Pandaemonium.
It's like living in Pandaemonium.
It doesn't matter how many people march or protest. There's nothing we can do, except be swept along in the current of a political climate utterly devoid of morality, compassion, kindness or even just good sense. An idiocracy; a circus; a terrible place to be.
