Hahaha you’re right. The irony is that I actually detest talking about politics.

It’s a senseless circus—from the politicians to the electorate. This was my only logical conclusion after years of studying law, politics and philosophy at university.

The only reason I’m writing these articles is that people have moved beyond typical political bullshittery and are now dismantling the spine that upholds democratic societies—classical liberal ideology.

Perhaps because I have lived in an undemocratic society before, I recognise the slow decline towards one. And I remember well that it is always adorned with “good intentions”. Whatever those are.
