    Yeah. A few years ago there was a referendum whether to keep compulsory military service in Austria. All the 18 year olds where like, fuck no, abolish this shit. All the old farts where like, I had to do it, I hated it, so you have to do it too.

    That’s when I realised democracy sucks. They made a big deal of giving voting rights to 16 year olds, but in the end it doesn’t matter, it’s still the older people deciding what the young people have to do.

      younger people don’t vote. most people don’t give a shit about politics until they have children and own homes and are 40+
