This is entirely true. The policies being undertaken at the federal level are, issue by issue, deeply unpopular. But our electoral outcomes are corrupted by constitutional anachronisms, gerrymandering and organized voter suppression. Government by the people is farce.

when i was a 16yo girl i thought i was an adult. coaching 12-17yo girls as a 28yo really hammered home how much i was wrong about being an adult at 16 and how obvious it is to actual adults that a 16yo is not an adult. if they say they cannot tell they are lying because they are a creep.
