You guys are great! Listeners don’t need a bloodbath, it’s much better for our mental health. We’ve heard enough of ill intentioned politicians justifying their actions. It’s just the old guard posturing to preserve their power, only listening to a far flung fraction of their constituents. I find hope in listening to your voices of reason and compassion.
