    hmm yeah i was asking because in the context of these protests, it’s important to understand precisely what is actually protested against, just for the sake of making more efficient analysis and decisions.

      People think the current us administration is doing a lot of awful things to a lot of people buts it’s worse that they hold themselves above the law to do it, above the limits of their power, above the checks and balances that usually prevent authoritarianism

      Among the many bad stereotypes of royalty is the blatant nepotism, self-enrichment, and total disregard for their constituents. Somehow they have no shame in accepting bribes, do not even try to hide it, and no shame using their authority to establish business “deals@ for family and friends
