Very hard to believe democracy ended up like this honestly. Every political party now feels less like “we stand for this” and more like “how do we stay in power for another 5 years.” The moment a party starts depending too much on groups and vote banks everything becomes acting after that. Nobody can even speak normally anymore without calculating who gets offended and who stays happy. Whole thing just feels fake sometimes. I genuinely keep thinking how hard can it actually be to run a state with some basic standards and common sense but then again maybe every person says that before becoming the exact same thing later lol.
