[two characters are talking in front a modern city full of skyscrapers]

[blue, annoyed] I feel betrayed by the current political system! Let’s get rid of it, I want major changes now!

[green] You naive fool, the only thing we can realistically accomplish is gradual reforms

[blue] Okay then, I’ll vote for you, now please actually do some gradual reforms

[now in a political office, green is sitting behind the desk, dressed in a suit, looking presidential]

[green, smirking smugly while shrugging] Sorry, best I can do is constantly move to the right to please conservatives, the current political system leaves us no other choice

[blue is looking both pissed and defeated, has no words]

      Betrayal is what usually happens whenever you listen to a liberal’s pleas for compromise.

      Voting for them as harm reduction isn’t a bad thing, but placing too much trust in them is a bad idea, it’s worth diversifying your means of action instead of putting too much trust into one person/party :)

      Came here to write pretty much that: “compromise” is just sheeps clothing for the technocrat whore wolf
