Chatted with some normal non political Berkeley people and it is WILD to me the way people will say we want leaders who look at the facts, who focus on results, who aren’t beholden to this interest group or that and then when someone actually is that in their core, they hate hate hate that person.

Especially this fact that doesn’t actually mean what I’m saying it means, but I will create a pretext for you to get angry and delegitimize the opposition!

I don’t expect people to look at politicians as people or to understand their behavior as often determined more by structural factors than individual virtues or vices but come ON guys, like, maybe the interest groups emailing you to get you whipped up over their issues are the actually the bad guys.
