Politics
someone to blame for all these terrible issues we have globally, and
the governments seem to be the perfect people to pin it all on.
Although, it does gowithout saying that we have some foundation
to build our mistrust and displeasure with these politicians on. Like
politicians in past generations, today’s politicians believe if you
repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth. They convince you
they’re sincere and compassionate by kissing babies and appearing
at charity events. Some would say they act a bit phoney from time
to time. As well as this, some politicians have become human
puppets. Every politician need money to campaign. It’s the source
of the money that creates puppet-masters and puppets. I don’t
have anything against puppets as such, I think “Sesame Street” is
great but when it comes to representing me in parliament, I’ll pass
on them.
The effects of such unsteady governments worldwide is
completely, and utterly, never-ending. Protests in all different
forms have begun arising with many countries proving their
discontent with their respective governments. Great Britain’s
referendum for leaving the
EU
ended in a highly controversial ‘yes’
vote, and as if the tension wasn’t already enough over there with a
48% ‘no’ and 52% ‘yes’ vote, many voters are said to have placed a ‘yes’
vote in a kinda ‘
STUFF YOUGOVERNMENT
’ way and to show their
displeasure with the current government but they didn’t actually
vote with the intention of leaving the
EU
. Over in Turkey, we have
the most overt form of protest against the government happening,
an attempted coup having occurred only about one week ago. It’s
clear that many countries are showing disapproval of their own
governments but in every form of protest we have witnessed, it
seems the non-revolting solution turns out much better.
Yes, we may be consumed in finding out the latest goss about Tay
Swift and Kimmy K’s beef or finding all the rare Pokèmons around
Melbourne, but it’s time that we pay attention to the root of all our
problems. After all, we can’t just build a wall and hope that it will fix
everything, and having Kanye for 2020 president isn’t quite the
solution either. So what’s the solution I hear you ask? Look, I really
have no idea, I’m not a politician you see. But what I do know, is
that we have to begin to tune into this. The outcomes of when you
stop trusting them are much worse than those when you do. We
have stop worrying about the efficiency of our politicians and
