    OTOH I’d want to know which dema sat it out as a virtue signalling exercise, and now act all indignant blended into the crowd now the rest are up in arms (figuratively, of course). It’s like oh yeah, back then it wasn’t such a big deal to take control of your govt, blame the system blah blah blah.

      The latter is damage control. The former long run positive change.
