Episode 12 (year 3): The Challenges That Nuerodivergents Have When Trying to Understand Politics and The Voting Process

Have you ever had challenges voting because of your lack of knowledge of politics? Not knowing exactly how politics and voting work? Or because your mind tends to go too black and white when you are thinking about the politics of things? I know for me it was hard to vote when I was 18 because I didn’t know much about politics. I didn’t know how much effect voting can take on society. I also didn’t know how democratic I was or if I was liberal.
