The last few years I often think I should get into #politicsBut then I remember that I don't have patience for bullshit, no connections, no capital and no idea where to startBut still, there is an urge!Kinda funny, as kid I was sure I would become a farmer

@stux "What could he do? Should have been a politician..."I strongly support you getting involved in politics.

@stux I thought about getting involved...even reached out to some locals to see how to do so.Then I started thinking about it and realized that the BEST case scenario for spending large sums of money and all of my time interacting with people that I don't know and don't like, the BEST outcome is that I get elected to do a job that I'm not qualified to do.

@roknrol Same I guess 🤔I love problem solving but i feel many in politics are there to create them instead

@stux That's exactly it. I'm a good problem solver, but that assumes that I'm given appropriate information and I'm not actively being sabotaged by my own "team".Also, the problems that you're expected to solve are *people* problems, and my solution for those problems generally involves a gigantic trebuchet and the sun.

@stux Please don't start a new party, we definitely don't need that. :p And you don't need capital to get involved in your local party (there must be some left wing party where you live, right??).
