What's weird about never voting for who you actually want because money buys votes and so the type of people you'd really like to see run never make it past your local dog catcher position so your only real option to avoid the absolute worst case scenario is someone who will continue atrocious acts because they have no real control as the previously mentioned money controls electoral outcomes so they're held hostage and you're left seeing an ever further lurch towards outright fascism against your own citizenry?

Oh. Yeah... That.
