The way that Zelensky's attackers in international politics go on about the fact that he was an actor actually betrays an interesting little class thing, which is that being an artist continues to be considered not a real job.

Unfortunately we very well may have seen our last free election, and it possibly wasn‘t the most recent one.

yikes man, you are giving up 31 days in?

I mean, depending on your standard, an argument can be made that the US has never seen a truly free election. When has there not been voter suppression and denial of franchise to some groups, after all?

Any job can produce a national leader and claiming otherwise is just antithetical to the entire concept of a democracy

Entertainers running for office is only something they denigrate when they run for parties they don't like.

yeah I didn't want to insert America into the convo but I have mixed feelings about actors *broadly* because the only two to get anywhere on a national campaign were Reagan and Trump

in theory I don't have a problem with an actor and Zelenskyy, as far as I can tell, is incredible.

When the criticism is coming from Americans denigrating someone fighting for their country for their prior career, it is not inserting America into the conversation to point out the way America has voted.

there was a time I would have been very concerned because the American Public needs to evaluate the candidate by their policies and not their charm!! but like we're several national elections past my ability to pretend that that's ever going to be a thing

Fuck's sake, Lincoln had some kind of steam boat patent and road a goddamn donkey around with a buffalo pelt instead of a jacket. Let's get a little less precious and vote for Swift, /Reputation/ aside.

Good leaders listens to advisor's hence why we don't have any kind of requirements for leadership.
