"Who Gives A Fuck" has beaten out intense competition from "Politicans Are Human Scum" and "They're Both Wankers" to emerge as the official third party candidate in this year's American elections. WGAF rise to prominence comes at a time where widepspread disillusionment with the conventional two party system means there is a real chance for gains.
Political analyst Michael McMasters comments: "I think this result, of WGAF triumphing over genuine third party candidates like Gary Johnson, speaks of the increasing detachment from geopolitical concerns as the technological miasma we are currently embroiled in engulfs us in a cocoon of personalised digital delusions. Ooh, and everybody thought it would be hilarious to see a dirty word on the ballot paper of course."
While some see the move as an important step in expressing disatisfaction with the system, others are afraid of what could happen should WGAF actually win.
McMasters continues: "The fear is that WGAF stands for apathy or at least the abandonment in disgust of a hopelessly corrupt or incompetent system. So, a WGAF win would be seen as a green light for politicians to follow their own agendas with only a surface display of concern for the common good. It would change everything."
