I Am Sick of Politics

Over the last few years I've really got into politics, the theory behind it, all the different ideologies and all that. It's really fascinating, especially when you tie it into history. BUT this Brexit fiasco is really doing my head in!! These remoaners are on the brink of starting trouble in England, the sort of which we haven't seen for years!! This is more than left/right, leave/remain - this is all about democracy now. But then again, the Corbynated Chicken doesn't do democracy, does the little commie?

I have my theories about why the media is going bat sh*t crazy in Britain and America at the moment - but the thought police would arrest me and throw the key away for saying it!!!

@SimplyTracie I'll PM you...

@SimplyTracie It's like 1984 all over again, actually. You can find stuff if you look it up. There's tons of things to go about covering with this. These are scary times for us all.

@IWasCallingYaLarry Sometimes it’s difficult though to decipher what’s factual and what’s just theory.
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie I get that. I hear ya. But if you don't think these times right now are like 1984 all over again, you need to pay attention to what's going on around you.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry It continues to head in that direction. I can see that.
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie Okay. Well yeah it is. At least you understand that. Like with cameras being literally everywhere, tech monopolies are now censoring people who don't politically agree with them, lives are being ruined over jokes, people can't handle different opinions, everybody is easily offended by everything, this is a scary decade. I mean yes 1984 was horrible, but this is like 100 times that.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry It’s time...
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie Yeah sadly. Everybody is screwed.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry I mean, it’s time for you to get off your butt and make some changes.
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie Yeah more like everybody. But know what? I'm a good person and try to be kind to everybody. I'm not mean to anybody. But that doesn't matter. Because no matter what you do or don't do, or say or don't say, doesn't matter because regardless, someone's gonna get offended about something and try to ruin your life for it. Doesn't even matter what it is necessarily.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry That’s very true. I guess we can only live our life as best as we know how and suffer whatever faces us down the road. 🤷‍♀️
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie Yeah exactly. We just gotta live our lives. I hope nobody is an asshole and tries to do anything like that to you.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry That you. 🤗
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie You're welcome. You seem nice. I hate when bad things happen to nice people.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry You’re nice too. 😊
Maybe after 2020, Trump will fix everything.
🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie yeah. I do believe he's gonna win again. Even people who hate him think so and are predicting it.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry He will because desperate people are still desperately hoping he will keep his promises.
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie I mean yes, but also because the dems have no idea what they're doing and he is playing them like fiddles. I don't like him, but I would rather him win than the dems who are running. They only got 1 person who isn't crazy and who seems like she would be a great candidate. Everyone else on the dems side trying to run sucks and have unrealistic policy ideas.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry What’s her name?
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie Tulsi Gabbard.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry You must know I like her too.
IWasCallingYaLarry · 26-30, M
@SimplyTracie Yeah she's the only good candidate for the dems they have. And I do agree with some of her policies but sadly, I don't think she'll win the primary because the other dems are all running around like chickens with their heads cut off and trying to one up each other. It's like a circus that won't end.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@IWasCallingYaLarry That’s so true.
KatyB · F
@IWasCallingYaLarry The only thing with Tulsi is she wants to strip you's of your gun rights. Do you think the British parliament would be going on like this if we had guns? Gun ownership keeps government honest...
