yep. 100%. they legit don’t give a fuck, but everything they do is about appearing to care. it’s deeply cynical approach to politics. actual polciy and law making don’t matter, lip service to the cause du jour is everything

i don’t think it was this bad 10-20 years ago. social media hypercharged that reality is nothing more than appearances and truth and substance have zero value. and the populace laps it up like candy.
