I notice when I post about a problem it gets attention. But when I post about candidates who would fix the problem, not so much. And that's a problem. Electoral politics isn't everything but it can't be left out of the equation if we really want to solve the problems of the world

There is a trend of loss of faith. Admittedly in part because many of the elected Left have become co-opted to one extent or another by the Establishment. It's hard to believe that individuals can withstand the pressure once they enter the belly of the beast.

I don't advocate the "canceling" of people like AOC and Bernie. But... I do understand why some people are upset. And by extension why it's hard for some to believe elected officials can make a difference. I don't know what the answer is. But, I do agree it's the only way we win.
