The people i know that are involved in politics, were without exemption the craziest motherfuckers i knew through my whole childhood.
These people were always the guys/girls that got the positions as class representatives aswell.
Looking back, only reason they got their positions was because all the sane, qualified and smart people didn’t give a fuck, and def didn’t want to spend their energy fighting them.
Same i feel is true for the world now as grownups.
…The best of us don’t turn to politics, they focus on themselves, their craft and their family.
