"You suffer because of your politics" is laundering a political statement under the guise of health.
And yes, I do think mockery has become de rigeur in American politics, both left and right.
- silverquiet 3y agoIf people are indeed suffering because of their politics, is there any way to ease their suffering without making a political statement of some kind?
- kbolino 3y agoI think viewing things that way is akin to thinking wet streets cause rain. It is placing (often very selectively) an undue amount of agency upon a voter, whose effect on the political system at scale is essentially nil.
