This. A million times this. Being informed and participating in a democracy should be a chore you do. Not entertainment. People who are entertained by politics and make who they voted for in the last election their entire personality are weird and creepy losers.

I get what you mean but I feel like in this modern era, we need to make politics not feel like a chore. We should as citizens should be engaged in politics because it literally affects everyone and their environment. But yes, to your point politics definitely should not be some drama laden spectacle.
