I feel that’s a lot of countries right now. USA didn’t want Biden, but it was better than Trump. The UK is facing an election where we’ll have to chose between Starmer or Sunak(?).

The system feels broken beyond repair.
The choice is between a perpetrator and a collaborator.
Personally, it doesn’t matter much to me how palatable a politician is when the end result is the same.
