Lives that must revolve around Politics

Who's told you your life has to do with politics? NO-ONE.

But don't deride those who are interested and mock them for having 'no fun, no lives and nothing better to do' either.

Just scroll past and don't get involved, if this is what you want to do.

I think most people's lives revolve around something. Mine revolves around family.
Nothing wrong to have an interest in something like politics. It does affect our lives after all.

You obviously needed to get that off your chest.

I am very aware that people can rant and rave, ram their opinions down your throat, call you politically naive etc but none of it makes any difference to what happens in the world.

Ok if you have that inclination.
And time.
And energy.

But there are other people who dont.
They may be
putting food on table
Giving birth
Childcare
Looking after elderly or dying parents
Multiple hospital visits
Massive failing health

Amongst many other things.
I can add to that list, or others can.

I would say though, that Politics is far from the answer to everything in the Universe. Very far from it.

I have seen it for years.
On forums and in real life.
As if Politics should be the very centre of a persons' being.
And if not, why not?

And my gosh if someone does not even have any interest in it.
Well there must be something wrong with them. or worse, They are derelict in their duty to the world.

What rubbish.

Rant over,

That has been in me for a while.Years.

I couldnt care less if anyone replies.
Good or bad.
I just needed to say it!
