    But even just saying it is a step in the right direction.

    We need to have much, much higher standards for our politicians than this.

      If the only thing you want is everything right now, you're going to be very disappointed your entire life.

        If the only thing you demand is empty platitudes, you can expect a lot of those and not much else.

              You are from hexbear. So I understand why you have no understanding of what nuance is, and how it applies to real life.

                    Literally in what comment? The one where you said this statement obviously won't achieve anything or the one where you said expecting more than that means I won't get anything? Like, you already acknowledged we won't get anything here, but somehow that's my fault for saying that's bad?

        How many times do you people need to be duped by this bullshit before you finally learn?

            We all see the same threads and are free to comment. That's how federation works. If you say something remarkably stupid your comment might end up in The Dunk Tank, and then yeah, you will get a lot of people coming over to make fun of you. I'm afraid in this case your comments just aren't that remarkable. I'm just responding to you as a browse the thread.

            My question still stands though. How many times are you going to believe the shit falling out of these ghouls' mouths? Will you ever stop believing, or will your credulity never faulter, even as your quality of life plummets to protect the political status quo?
