   So I ask, in your own opinion do you think politics should be the concern of every citizen.

Politics should be participated in by everyone, rather than being limited to a specific set of people or being a concern of a small number of citizens.  Politics is inextricably linked to democracy, and we all know that "democracy is government of the people, by the people, and for the people." This definition explains why everyone is crucial in identifying the ideal candidate to represent them and reign over them. Invariably, if some individuals do not vote, the small majority who do not vote has a negative impact on the huge population who does vote. Only one individual can determine whether the outcome of an election will be in the people's favour or whether they will experience hardship for a number of years again if they are elected.

Politics really does concern everyone, directly or indirectly. Although government elections in some countries are not usually free and fair because of the cheating, fighting, and corruption that repeatedly occur, But most times, if a bad president is elected to rule, it is also the fault of the citizens who fail to support politics. Some people would say that they don't have any connections to partake in politics without even realising how important it is for them to contribute during voting or supporting a chosen leader, perhaps mostly during voting for another president.

yes everyone has an equal right to pursue whatever interest they dime fit,  but then not everyone will have the ball to pursuits their interest.


Every has interest coupled with the zeal but that ball is what is lacking because those political gladiators are ready to kill or harm whoever crosses their part not to get to power. Many young men have been cut short because of their aspiration politically. So it is not a terrain for the lily livered to flourish like other endeavors like economy, social and media outlets. In politics, you have to be strong because that is where all other policies of government stem from.

It is inseparable from everyday life, politics has become part of the journey of life. Politics is a way of getting something, every citizen must learn political science so that they are not mistaken in interpreting it.

If politics is only as simple as elections, it will always be self-defeating because of it. Awareness is needed to advance the country consciously in politics, so that no one is harmed.

like its said, politics is everyone's business, you gotta know who your friends are because you never know, they do have enemies that will also be your enemies by just being affiliated with your friends.  you can compare this to countries in which you will need to take sides because not taking sides may mean you are an enemy.

corporate politics is the worse. the workplace is not a good place to play around with politics but its does happen all the time.

Yes, no matter if it's dictatorship, meritocracy, capitalist, monarchy or "democratic", everyone should be involved because the policy of those in the seat of power will affect the masses the most, if the masses were to let those in power go wild and be stupid and abuse their power, they're the ones that's going to suffer the most. I mean you can take Stalin's era as an example, before him, we didn't know that such evil could be contained in one person but Holodomor and Cannibal island and countless gulag prisoners proved otherwise, if the people acted early on before the paranoia set in, Stalin wouldn't be able to commit those atrocities. That's why I feel bad when people are apolitical, they don't want to fight for their right to a better living, they're happy that they can eat 3 square meals a day when all of us deserve more than that.

Politics is also defined by another scholar as the game of interest,  so that, who gets what when and how is interconnected to who sick to pursue their interest,  yes everyone has an equal right to pursue whatever interest they dime fit,  but then not everyone will have the ball to pursuits their interest.

While some will leave the struggle,  of her will fake the struggle upon themselves,  and this is the set of people who get what and how in the game of power acquisition control and usage.

Of course. Most people who say they don't care about politics are those privilege enough to know that a bad government can't affect their lifestyle greatly. They don't care because they're already comfortable. We all should know at least the basics and be involved in choosing a great leader. Even in ways we can't fathom, the government controls the way we live and determines how we live it.

I think it should be spelt polly-ticks. These days it seems the only people who gain political power are parrots who tick the boxes of the globalist elite. Until the people are able and willing to determine those who aspire to power, we will be condemned to the soup/mire resulting from public apathy.

Politic is everyone's business, but sadly everyone can't give huge impact to politic because it's controlled by someone who has big power in the country.

Before the presidential threshold voting begin, the candidate will act good and being honest to his citizen, he will bribe people to choose him even though he's not a good person. If the result isn't good, he can bribe the government to manipulate the result and then he will win.

As long politics remains the masses activities that is associated with the government and it's governing bodies, which the governing bodies are candidates that is decided my the masses, then politics remains every bodies business.

These political governing bodies are represented as leaders leading the masses so, politics is everyone's business because you have the right to choose who leads you else you get led to where wasn't expected.

  So I ask, in your own opinion do you think politics should be the concern of every citizen.
If you fold your arms and decide not to be involved in being active in the selection of the leaders to lead your country, you will not be exempted from any unfavorable policy that they make. Politics should be a concern for everyone. You must not be over active in politics, but do not be completely ignorant of what is happening around you. I get angry at people who say politics of their country do not concern them just so they can sound cool and in control, to me it just shows their level of foolishness, stupidity and immaturity.

Yes, everyone is affected by political decisions so it should be a concern, and in fairness
its avery popular discussion - mostly to complain and give out about current political affairs.

Those who dont at least cast their vote in elections dont really have a right to complain
about the outcome and there are those who dont vote and yet have nothing good to say
about a government.

Politics is guaranteed to affect everyone to some degree, positively or not so positively
so its important to try and keep up with current political affairs so that we can be well
informed about issues concerning us for when elections come around.

Yes. I think politics is supposed to be the concern of all of us and the citizens are supposed to engage in political debate and exchange of ideas. However, I am very aware that politics can be tiring and affect the mental health negatively of many people, in the car of those who prefer to avoid politics for the sake of their own health, I would be okey if they decided to step back and do not follow the political news closely, but they should still co to use to vote and engage in some way, so they voices can be still be counted and be heard.

It would be foolish to complain on the situation of your country if you do not even vote.

Politics is for everyone and everyone should partake in politics because it is part of our human right. It is the duty for citizens to use elections to remove bad government and if everyone feels unconcern about partaking in politics, this means that their will be no good government and the corrupt ones will see politics as their birthright and they will oppress the ignorant. If the economy gets worst everyone will complain,why do you have to complain when you didn't stand up for your right. Politics is in human nature so we don't need to pretend as if we can do without politics.

People who are not interested in Politics will still be affected by what is going on around him including politics because its them who decides what the people get. A little changes in the rules by the governing politicians like banning grain affects you as a consumer. So don't think because you careless what is going on in politics mean politics will forget you.

All the more in geopolitics and us who trades in currencies because a little conflict in the Tokyo affects YEN/USD market.

It is a circle yes. If a country also does not partake in global politics and get it self affiliated to what is happening and try to influence it to their favour then the negative aspect of the global politics will keep hitting on the country's economy. The decisions agreed on the global comes down to the local, if world bank increase it spending, it is either it will benefit some countries in terms of loan and it is those that are influential and have presented very good reasons will get such on the shortest time while others are left behind.

I don't think a portion of the population that's entirely ignorant should be participating in politics. "I'm not interested in politics" is perfectly valid. An unpopular opinion but it happens to be true -- the best type of democracy exists only when an educated population participate in producing the pillars of a free society which emphasizes individual liberties. Having an uneducated population participate in political matters is how the Marxists achieve their utopian socialist hellish landscape.

We may all not be politicians but those in politics are there for us and are working for us, we are directly or indirectly affected by their decisions made, therefore we are expected to have the mind to develop interest in what they do and get carried along, we are expected to be well served by them, join and support every good intention they desired to work upon in giving back to the society, help motivate them and raise the support they needed from us towards nation's building and go against every injustice going on in the society.

Yes, politics is every citizen's business in a democratic society. It affects our lives, rights, and the direction of our communities and countries. Being informed about political issues and participating in the democratic process through voting and engagement is essential. While not everyone may be deeply involved, a basic understanding of governance empowers individuals to make informed decisions. Political participation ensures that diverse voices are heard and can lead to more inclusive and representative policies. Ultimately, active citizenship strengthens democracy and fosters a society where everyone has a stake in shaping its future.
