    It doesn’t help that at least outside the US and UK, there aren’t a whole lot of sources that independently verify politicians’ statements in an unbiased way. Politicians lie a bunch, to the point that you can just automatically assume any of their promises won’t happen when elected. A lot of people either don’t know this or just can’t access the sources that would help them find this out.
