Dearest Kitty, At least one long chapter on our life in hiding should be about politics,
but I've been avoiding the subject, since it interests me so little. Today, however, I'll devote an entire letter to politics.
Of course, there are many different opinions on this topic, and it's not surprising to hear it frequently discussed in times of war,
but... arguing so much about politics is just plain stupid!
Let them laugh, swear, make bets, grumble and do whatever they want as long as they stew in their own juice.
But don't let them argue, since that only makes things worse.
The people who come from outside bring us a lot of news that later proves to be untrue; however, up to now our radio has never lied.
Jan, Miep, Mr. Kleiman, Bep and Mr. Kugler go up and down in their political moods, though Jan least of all.
Here in the Annex the mood never varies. The endless debates over the invasion, air raids, speeches, etc., etc.,
are accompanied by countless exclamations such as “Eempossible!” or “Oh, for heaven's sake!”
“If they're just getting started now, how long is it going to last!” “It's going splendidly!” “But, great!”
