i totally agree with you. i myself as a non-U.S citizen, truly had similar way of thinking of politics. by being influenced by family, friends, and your surroundings has a massive impact on how we think, behave and trust people. on the other hand i see people in many countries losing their trust in politicians and the media, which in my view often serve as a way to deeply entrench «manipulation».

like you, i hope for a paradigm shift, where people push for more honesty, transparency, and accountable leadership, thought this won’t happen easily.

psychology plays a big part in how this shift is going to happen. it all starts with the mind 🧠
