I don’t hate many things . I do dislike many things , politics has become popular in every part of our society. I hate it because an A political person has a constant fight to remain independent and not a part of a certain group and lose a good part of their personal thought processes. IE if you don’t think or do what we do then you are not one of us and you must suffer. i have suffered many thing in my 76 years and although I still get some sleepless nights with worries and thoughts about what might they do next , I fear not except Gods karma. I truly believe that the world was a much better place before politics took over. Just maybe a turning point is coming soon. Thank You and God Bless
