"If you don't turn on to politics, politics will turn on you"
Simplified meaning
If you ignore politics and choose not to get involved, politics will still affect your life, but in ways you might not like. For instance, consider voting. If many people decide not to vote, the decisions still get made, often by a smaller group with specific interests. This can lead to laws or policies that don't benefit everyone equally. For example, if citizens don't participate in choosing leaders, they might end up with leaders who don't care about important issues like education, healthcare, or fair wages. Getting involved in politics by voting, staying informed, or voicing opinions helps ensure that the government reflects the people's true needs and desires. Simply put, being involved in politics gives you a better chance at shaping it in a way that works for you and your community.
