I could imagine they increasingly don't trust politicians either.
It's almost as if there is a pattern there isn't it?
Maybe we are being filled with more bullshit all around than we have ever been!
Maybe that's precisely the goal.. increase distrust in Politicians so that people start voting for the extreme right who then get rid of the last resemblance of democracy.
Sadly yes.
Politicians doing nothing for the people since a good 50 years may have something to do with the rise of the extreme right too.
