Politics will always disappoint you. All you can do is work towards the things that matter

[-] GraniteM@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago

Of course politics will always disappoint you. Politics is the means by which large groups of people aggregate their desires sufficiently to achieve collective goals. It's a massive process of millions of compromises. The goal is explicitly not to make everyone happy. The goal is to have enough people of good will and with enough information avaliable involved that the series of compromises move enough of us in the right direction.
