    It seems like teenagers these days are much more alert to social causes and seem to have a more innate sense of right and wrong but I wonder how easy it will be for them to make it in politics now the cork is out of the bottle on division politics.

    Looking at the US, even someone like AOC who comes from a working class background and clearly has good intentions is just being sucked into a Dems good / GOP bad cycle and is losing focus on what actually matters.

    Not really sure I see anyone occupying the middle ground of issues and winning recently. It just means nothing gets done.
