    I’ve spent the last 2 decades campaigning for and voting for positive change for my peers. You can go fuck yourself and your regressive opinions.

      No. This nonsense about people who are dedicated at their jobs vs Trump-like idiots who have no idea what they’re doing is just wrong.

      What matters is NOT “career” politicians, but good politicians and bad politicians.

      For example Bernie is (now) a “career politician” and AOC wasn’t, but probably is now. Both are good and are examples of good politicians.

      If you want to whine about how there’s more bad career politicians than good ones, I’ll also remind you that there’s more “career politicians” than not.

      In short, it’s a nonsensical delimiter. It’s a thought terminating cliche.

      And it’s lazy.

      You can vote for and promote positive change without being an idiot on Lemmy about it.
