Whenever I send a message to my senator asking him to support or oppose some act, he always sends me an email where he gives me a civics lecture and I'm all "oh...okay, um, so did you support or oppose the thing like i asked you? cuz that's really the one question i would like answered"

until we're in the soup line for goodness sakes!
Oh no soup line because there
will be no compassionate people with any resources at all
They'll send out street sweepers to pile us up for disposal
am I exaggerating?
maybe a bit but maybe not
The Great Depression
The difference then was our gov was not our enemy
There was humanity compassion
throughout the country
the gutting of everything tentacles into organizations
The WILL of our
gov to bring us to our knees is different
We are in unknown territory
Senator: thank you for writing. since the dawn of time, puppies have been integral to the american experience. rest assured, that i will continue to fight for american experiences
Me: ??????
Y'know, like some sort of representative democracy.
Actually, not even half the American public voted for it.

You can’t make this shit up!
I called my senator's office and got a form letter email that did the same thing - *thoroughly ignoring my ask*.
This was from a senator that I respect and donated generously to.
I fucking hate that.
It's like dealing with a Monster Corp customer service department - utter BS.
