The flip flopping gets...exhausting. We have to get upset enough to demand change, but we get verbally castrated for getting upset.

I had to check out for a few days from politics last election due to the same stuff happening here, only rarely posting and checking in and switching back to lurking for a bit.

I may end up having to do the same again, because these posts attacking us makes the issue much worse. We are on the same side, and the fury is righteous. It's better to vent about it than do a glowie's bidding and let it enter real life.
