I don't even know what left & right means in terms on politics and I like that I don't

@GoToTheCompound Neither the guy who block me so that's OK.

@BohemianBoo To take any part in politics you're automatically giving power to a tiny minority of people regardless of which side you're on

@GoToTheCompound No, because a tiny minority is going to have that power regardless. By voting for more democratic policies, you're giving more power to yourself.
@BohemianBoo That assuming that you think voting actually does something.. and believing that you actually live in a democracy. Which I don't because there's no proof of it

@GoToTheCompound Boo (like I) would say that we only have a limited form of democracy under capitalism and that a lot of people exaggerate what are actually small differences.
However, voting absolutely matters and not voting (in conjunction with absence of any other political action) merely hands even more power to those upstairs.

@Burnley123 There's no proof voting is not an elaborate form of theater. Do you know for a fact that votes are tallied properly? Would you bet your life on it? You don't think it's weird that 95% of all American presidents are blood related?

@GoToTheCompound There is no proof that the moon isn't made of cheese.
