I think Letter’s response of being despondent is reasonable and proportional. But turn the dial up a bit and you get utter histrionic hysteria “fascist”, “racist” “Nazis”
Fuck me, it’s either utterly performative or their blood pressure must be through the roof
Get some perspective.
I think it’s normal to find it depressing to find such a complete lack of capability in our political class. But I remember feeling the same way three years ago. I equally know I’m motivated by bias because I dislike Johnson (I can’t say I hate him but I am contemptuous of his dishonesty and venality) and I have an inner sense of not wanting people to get away with being a shit.
But think things will only improve if people on both sides get a fucking grip, realise that politics isn’t football fandom and isn’t about shouting about how much you hate the other side.
