  • I think all your criticisms are valid, but I sense a generalized vitriol born from disappointment of specific entities or people, while you’re criticizing what’s possibly the first “big” political for many of those people, and you risk of alienating everyone potentially capable or willing to do more by talking this way. No political community is sustainable if there cannot be clemency for the inadequate actions of ignorant people.

    Accountability is important, criticism is important, but self criticism and self accountability are the most important of all.

    Acting high and mighty towards the “less politically pure” than you will not pressure anyone into doing more, you might not like to hear it, but to many what you wrote can be equally seen as virtue signalling.

    I write this with no animosity, just trying to form a constructive criticism for your justified frustration





  • Your point is based on an idealistic and wishful “uncorruot government”. You cannot have an uncorrupt government. What’s needed is a different form of political decision making, one where the common folk participates in the political questions, not just some answers, where accountability is protected and a priority.

    I don’t know the exact blueprint for this, maybe it is as unattainable as an “uncorrupted government”. What I know is that nobody really tried it yet, while so called “liberal democracy” has proven its failings to all and the fascist have been taking advantage of those failings since the start. The only way yo avoid this is to change our questions, not to all agree on the answers
