I don't.
Then you're not paying attention. The bills getting passed, the executive orders, and the deals being made are all for your benefit. We can argue about how impactful they are but it's policy that benefits you that isn't a slight to others.
No, I am. It's why I think they're doing the bare minimum to say they tried. And the genocide that they're supporting doesn't benefit me in any way.
This is my exact meaning. We have no conflict.
Edit: Please, preach about the genocide in Gaza. Go right ahead, do it here and now. Everyone knows the stakes by this point. Let Gaza be the straw that nosedives america into fascism dejure. The supreme court just enshrined it. The plans are laid. If you can't stomach Gaza you are definitely not prepared for what comes next.
Except "we tried" isn't governing. It's fucking about and looking busy.
Want to stomp your feet and scream about how all the legislation passed just wasn't enough. It's not "real" governing. Feel free.
It's not like it matters anymore anyway. You want to believe that any politician has your best interests at heart, go ahead.
We have a king now.
None of what I said reflects how you just resigned yourself. Go pick a fight with someone who cares.
Enjoy pretending your king loves you.
