Because whenever I’m dumb enough to really stop and think about the foreseeable future, and how little hope there actually is, knowing that none of the dominant political powers are going to improve or change anything, I unsurprisingly become pretty deeply depressed.

I see why people choose not to think about it at all.

    I usually meet two types of apolitical people. Ones that think the capitalist system is working for them just fine so there’s no need to get invested in any politics. And ones that the system has beaten down so heavily that they see no way out and hence think everything is pointless.
