Lol. Someone has a self inflated sense of themselves
No raindrop thinks itself responsible for the flood.
Lol, nice. Which anime did you get that line from?
Dunno. Life somewhere :-)
But it's true. We're hyper-individualized and have forgotten what it's like to move together. We press a button, and nothing happens, so we assume it's useless. We have stopped thinking about acting together as a community, and all pressing the button together to have an effect.
And we've also forgotten that, in order to be a community and wield that power, you have to accept that some people disagree with you on some topics. It's how the right keeps winning.
But one thing we can't disagree on, is how first past the post works. You never vote FOR a candidate you like. You're always voting AGAINST the worst candidate.
