    Like people expecting a working democracy and thinking that it is enough to vote.

      Yes everyone knows that in order to have a functional society you need to wear a yellow fluorescent jacket and set fire to a few cars every time you’re moderately unhappy about something.

          yup people need to have stakes in being governed by the system to have an incentive to improve it, if they are too out of touch, then their only incentive would be their safety.

        This is pretty reducing of the yellow jacket movement but I don’t expect mainstream media to have covered that properly.

        That’s like spraying Axe/Lynx deodorant all over the body and believing that it will work as advertised.

        That’s still being just some guy.
