Aussie dad's summing up of political incompetence

Post by Wapiti » 23 Jan 2026, 7:59 am

Great short video of a great mate of mine's attempt at describing WHY such incompetent people are put there by the voters.
Why do the voters place such inexperienced, incompetent, self-interested nothings in power, and not have the brains to realise it is THEM that cause their own suffering.
Warning - might hurt some people's egos.

It's kind of like Catch 22.
Anybody who wants to be a politician shouldn't be allowed to be a politician.
This was understood by the ancient Greek philosophers.
But even then an individual with the right mix of narcissism, sociopathy and psychopathy with a measure of histrionic personality disorder will still slip through.

Think about it....
For all the excuses, bullsh*t reasons why it's hopeless, everyone's the same blah blah...
It's the voters that install the incompetence.
Or is it the incompetent installing the incompetence?
At any rate, it's the voters. Because the system is completely manipulative in our favour too. Numbers.
