minus-square@hark@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink1•4 months ago They exist to serve the people. They don’t do that either. If they don’t, then give them the boot. We can’t because the money-packed system self-selects for greedy assholes.
minus-square@Retropunk64@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglish1•4 months agoJust because they don’t, that doesn’t mean it isnt their purpose. And yes you can, you just won’t.
minus-square@morrowind@lemmy.mllinkfedilink1•edit-24 months agoWe can’t give them the boot for a good while. In the meantime, what would you have us do?
minus-square@Retropunk64@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-24 months agoThinking politicians are meant to lead you is cringe. I’m not a sheep, I don’t need to be lead. Their only job is to represent us. Unfortunately, they’ve been corrupted and only represent the ultra-wealthy.
