    I’m someone who understands that:

    • Governments aren’t always elected with the support of a majority of voters, or even a plurality.
    • A government does not represent the will of the voters who weren’t on the winning side of the last election
    • A government often doesn’t represent the will of the voters on the winning side either.
    • People vote based on what candidates say they’re going to do, and they have next to no control over what their leaders actually do after they’re elected.

    Sounds like you don’t understand those very basic facts. Your opinions are therefore not worth listening to.

      Unfortunately, you don’t understand the basics of living in a society. Please stop being arrogant and don’t assume you have an opinion worth listening to.
