How is it more appropriate to work with political campaigns and vote than to actually work with the community? Voting is a sham, plain and simple and that is my premise. If folks ACTUALLY want to do something in their communities, there are plenty of ways do such, and working with political parties and political campaigns seems to me to have the least efficacy.

Im not saying you are cynical in your local community, you are too cynical about the work people do in other countries, as i made clear in my last post. Ive never tried to inject myself into the things youve posted about the police messing you about, i respect the fact you probably know more about your situation than me
But when it comes to international politics, you dont have much of value to add
