Politics give women and weak men the ick because women and weak men feel that the personal is the political.
The personal IS political to emotionally incontinent people.

@SteeleHand ah of course, you are the arbiter of right and wrong and everyone who disagrees with you is “emotional”

@jasons6229do you have children? If not your shallow interpretation will finally deepen when you do.

@cheeselovingtreeYou can check their comment history. They’re just a repugnant person. There’s no point engaging with them. That only gives the perception that what they have to say has validity. People like them don’t deserve your time.

@jasons6229so no you don’t have children. Children have everything to do with everything….. the future they will live in is being decided every day in the world of politics.
But, a government school standout like you would be blind to that reality. Cause your government school teacher taught you to be so.
Forgive your mother. She knew not what she was doing to you.

@SteeleHand women and weak men? 🙄 Seriously? Politics is extremely personal. Our personal freedoms, our bodily rights and protections, and the decisions about how our collective tax dollars are allocated are about as personal as you can get.

♻🎟 I _get;_ indigestion from guilt or age, struggling to remember mood, and effort of social encounters, but politics is someone’s job. Elect someone competent … don’t drag the Kraken up with the catch. :[]

I’ve turned it out. I got my ballot in the mail yesterday and filled it out. Lick the envelope, signed it and mailed it. The choice was obvious. And mail in voting should be protected at all costs.

Mine is filled out and I’ll drop it off tomorrow (not gonna trust the mail with something this important).

Allow me to condense. Because IT SUCKS.
Greed driven, power driven, a manual of errors, and a litany of deceit. It stands in line right up there with religion and money as the third in a trio of human created destroyers.

Politics is fighting over who should tell us what to do. It’s about deciding who steals out money. It’s naturally ick. Nobody wants to be part of a cesspool.

I agree with this, but I can’t organize a group (for many reasons, including chronic illness). How would I go about finding an existing group to join?
