that's exactly why others are here to talk to and explain it to people.

there is a variety of ways you can learn politics from audiobooks to youtube to finding them irl as mentioned, if you prefer other ways of absorbing information. books are only the better source imo.

the thing people do need is wanting to learn. which I assume is what OP wants. its impossible to do political work without knowing the politics you are working to build.
