  • There are people in politics that believe in representative democracy and seek to influence the system for the better.

    They either stay local, are ground up by the system, or become corrupted by money and power.

    They have carrots and sticks for anyone, especially idealists.

    Yeah it’s just too much.

    I’m trying to be more proactive about telling people exactly that, to give them a chance to adjust, before I’ve bottled it up out of misplaced politeness and need to cut off contract.

    My sister deals with it all the time since she helps refugees who often can’t get work permits, and are extremely lonely on a different continent where almost no one speaks their language. So they (maybe understandably) cling to the one person that does. I admire her patience.





  • A different definition of the term isn’t a different worldview. Also, not immediately spinning every exchange into an exhaustive debate isn’t a critical character flaw. Unlike being an insufferable ass about not getting the amount of attention you apparently feel entitled to.

    Though I would take look at that poll about 80% of Christians being “essentially” Zionists if you’d link to it.
