"Seriously, those aren't the politicians. They spend more time with their hype than actual work."
Your childish views on this should not make public policy. Government is a serious and challenging issue.
"Sure, firefighters, doctors sometimes even policemen"
Who organizes them all?
"but there will be no civilization anymore"
Of course there will. As long as there are people, there's a civilization and with people, who can organize effectively, the civilization can be rebuild to it's former splendor quicker.
"Why would any community struggling to survive aid any organization that can't actually help them?"
Well that's just your thesis. I, for one, consult the engineer, who has maintained a machine for all his life, when the machine is broken. Not some random other guys.
"Would you give away your family's food for a promise knowing how bad politicians are in keeping promises?"
Politicians don't keep promises? Who then keeps promises? Knights? Counts? Dukes? Kings? Dictators?
You seem to have some problem with democracy in general.
Anyways... eventually, in this catastrophic scenario, you will come to group up with others and you will share resources and you will specialize. Then you will have new politicians, who make the same promises.
Why not use existing structures instead of needlessly building things anew.
Or do you propose they should also strip off their clothes and go through hardships until they have learned the craft of making jeans again?

"Politicians aren't the only capable leaders"
But the most capable ones. Or do you reckon a dictator better? O_o
"I wonder why do you call me childish for not trusting an organisation wich does not work only with a few exceptions."
Huh?! The Western democracies work BEST among any form of government. The least hunger, the least crime, the least wars.
"if the politicians are honest and trustworthy but if they are not how do you remove them?"
Doesn't matter whether all are honest and trustworthy. If every leader was perfectly righteous and reasonable, an aristocracy would work as well.
You remove people by not voting for them. It's as easy as that.
"They are controlling the law and, as you said, they are controlling organisations like the police."
That is true for the kings and dictators you seemingly favor, but not for politicians in a modern democracy.
Have you ever heard about the separation of powers, checks and balances? Executive, judiciary and legislative, which control eachother.
"Voting on the other parties won't do you any good because they are in this together."
You can found new parties, you can make referenda... also wtf is your alternative?
"Yes, I live in a country, where democracy slowly turns into tyranny and that does not mean that I have problem with democracy but the democracy is the problem itself, the whole system does not prevent misuses and corruption effectively."
So it's better to start at tyranny in the first place? You've argued for more democracy so far, not against it.
