I’ll take your word for it. I’m only talking about people in my situation. We’ve voted in the past and aren’t voting now. Presidents have won by focusing on getting out the vote for populations that have had low voter turnout.
When does it stop tho? He can keep running as long as he wants and dems can keep taking advantage of that to do whatever they want because they know they’ll get the vote because of fear politics.
Feel free to DM me if you want to talk about your personal problems outside of politics. I’m sorry you’re in need of help. You can be strong in the face of political adversity. Many oppressed people before you have and did not resort to suicide. You are a valuable member of society and people care about you whether you believe it or not and it has nothing to do with your identity. You are intrinsically valuable no matter who you are and I truly hope you can feel that in your heart.
I do vote in local elections and for house and senate. Just not playing presidential two party game of Saw.
As somebody who has formal experience with psychology and mental health you should know better than to deal in absolutes. Not sure what you define as the “mental crisis” happening in our country right now. Are you only talking about trans suicides?
Yes, politics play a role in mental health, but whatever mental health crisis you speak of cannot possibly be contributed to politics entirely. Especially, because as you seem to believe, politics are a result of the people’s actions or inactions, meaning the people influence culture as much as politics influence society.
You should know better than to make assumptions who you think I am by projecting all of your frustrations with the political system and society on me. It’s okay. I’ll be your punching bag. I hope you can find happiness and I wish you good physical and mental health.
