looking at how even the horses are disobeying being forced to harm people - we can conclude that calling cops animals is not appropriate - ghouls and psychopaths seems more adequate but don't let me stop you from listing all other fitting names you can think of:

human rights are not just based on what the law says..

if a community that had an unwritten custom that everyone could access the village well, and then a new ruler passed a law restricting certain people from the well, would you say no rights were violated since well access was never legally codified?

unless of course you're a feudalist/capitalist that supports the commons enclosures or the Highland "clearances"..

When people in hamsterballs is a more space efficient way of transporting people than cars are smh

Oh sick is Kamala campaigning on that??

I understand juggling the current political hellscape with a child is nightmarish but building a movement behind a better political system would be the first step in allowing people to vote for better options and resolve the myriad of issues you've listed - until then saying to "keep the cart behind the horse" only means we'll continue bickering in the backseat while the obviously broken two-party state drives us all off the edge.

And I get that between work and family finding time to be politically active can be challenging but I would hope you can find an hour or two a month to join your local RCV advocacy group and help create a better political environment for yours and everybody else's children.

So now that you've identified the problem I can only hope you're actively building grassroots support to replace the current system instead of just posting online about how people should vote blue no matter what, right?

the sooner we change things; the less violent it will be.

this is the most succinct argument illustrating the issue that I've seen so far, kudos!
