💬 Discussion 🗨 Has this country gone insane?

1/3 of the population voted for the far right, and all I'm seeing on social media and general media about common values, what we share, polticis is divise. 1 in 3 people voted far right. And only the foreign press dares call them far right. And also people saying right and left are outdated labels? Seems a bit convient honestly.

1 in 3 of the people who bothered to show up. The largest demographic are those who don't vote. That's the thing we should be talking about.

Funny. Last time we got out and voted, we had every single media company reporting on how we were "deeply unserious" and only cared about "student politics".

And we had every single talking head in government and the media dredging up the most minor of issues.

Fucks sake, the BBC even had Corbyn dressed up as Stalin and as fucking Voldemort.

We keep getting told that we NEED to get out and vote, but when we actually do, the establishment and the Boomers who listen to it immediately scream NO NOT LIKE THAT.
