You're not going to live forever. If you don't participate, other people will determine whether or not your time here is more or less difficult. People here often talking about the rich fighting to gently caress over everyone and keep their own to themselves. I'll admit that I'm as motivated by self-interest as any wealthy elitist, but belong to a proportionally larger segment of society than they do. The problem in the US is, a lot of people who are in a similar state are as disinterested in policy as you are, which makes class struggle less one-sided than the numbers ought to indicate. Essentially, figure out what pisses you off, what makes you mad, and at least vote against that if you can't be compelled to vote in support of something. Because being completely uninvested is helping anything you might oppose by subtraction. That said, "strong" political positions are ultimately flawed, since you should at least be willing to consider a situation that could cause you to change your beliefs. If you can't think of when you're ever going to be wrong, you're a blowhard with a pet issue, not unlike the pundits that contribute nothing to debate.
