My view on politics

Years ago, while still being at high school, I came up with an idea: the way politics work isn't effective.
Why would I think that? Well, everyone's unique, so their thoughts are unique as well. Political parties however don't think like that, so they just make a blend of various ideas about various topics.
My conclusion: you can't ACTUALLY vote on a party, because you'll NEVER fully agree.
I've never voted in my life. There are things I like from various parties, but I can't agree on everything.

I used to be a socialist. I used to make paintings about socialism and I used to express my believes. At some point there were a few guys from Chechnya who were fed up with me. They burnt my paintings and swore that they would kill me if I would still express my political believes. They started speaking about Russia, Adolf Hitler, the Jihad and why socialism is bad.
From that moment on my life was changed. I lost faith that people would share my views and I learned that everybody has some ideas that conflict with the greater masses of politics.
Nowadays, my views on politics are a mixture of everything: capitalism, socialism, anarchy, nationalism, etc, etc...
The word fails...
