Media put efforts in show us the most negligible part of politics to discourage participation.
Unserious political marketing. Parodic characters that some politicians adopt. Media’s ridicule of politicians. The spotlight placed on corrupt politicians. The «all politicians are the same.»
All these factors lead us to despise and not want to approach politics. Leaving open field to those politicians guided by personal interest or looking for a professional career.
Thus, we stop seeing politics as a space to solve our society’s problems and to create projects that can improve our lives. Ignoring the only tool we have to change our community for the better, we perpetuate the status quo.
