I think hearing my parents and relatives talk about politics ruined my faith in democracy. BC election is coming up, and when I asked my mom who she's going to vote for, she just said she doesn't like the current Liberal MP (Liberals are the "right" of BC, NDP is the "left") because he looks too "smart". Literally no substantiation beyond that, similar from my dad and grandma. Also they smugly remark about hating Trump constantly even though Trump has basically no impact on us. I'm pretty sure people have been brainwashed by the media.
