CMV: I want boring politics
I don't want unprofessional showpeople to come and rally up a certain group of interest and who go about everything according to their ideology.
I want boring, pure public servants who want to gather data to understand each phenomenon and utilize resources to tackle each issue in order of urgency and try to find the best overall solution, prioritizing the most socioeconomically vulnerable group for social sustainability. I want people who are there to do their job and not try to paint an image for their voters, like by "fighting woke culture" to please close-minded people who have not met a trans person or a person of color once in their lives.
I want parlaments that pause akwardly when someone even says the word 'woke' during a conference and goes on discussing something else entirely. There's actual policymaking to be done, like ways to help citizens find employment. I want demagogues stuck in an image of a past that never was to get laughed at by those who get back to actual work.
I want boring, tasteful debates in elections. I want people with no charisma, who are focused on understanding their area of specialty. Are they entertaining? No. But they are there to do their job and

Putting bias aside, there’s a lot said here but not much clarified which is why this is getting picked apart That part stands out. This could age very differently in a week. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
