Isn't it our responsibility to fire our lawmakers if they aren't doing what we want? After correctly placing the blame, what's the next step?

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

We're in a sort of circular blame logic. If the lawmakers get giddy with the oligarchs and agree to run measures to lower education, then whose fault is it when people can't think enough to oust them? That shit is happening right now. This is just a new screening of ancient tactics. Its the same shit shady pastors would pull when no one else could read the word of god but them. Instead of religious texts its laws and job titles of all sorts. Now that we can all read the language has been parsed to some extreme length that bars brevity and money is equivalent to oil or some stupid shit. I'm slaving for fucking oil notes cause I need to trade the notes for bread and shelter. Fuck this place.

Nobody ever wants to say the obvious: You cant fire them. You have to topple them.

I have a pretty bleak prediction for yall. Your hands will be bloody. And you will either despise it or be damned.

Unless you let it out in microconflicts like burning cars and brawling crowds, you dont want to find out what actually awaits.
