I'll paraphrase what someone on Lemmy said the other day:
Politics is like everyone on a bus voting for where we're going to go for lunch.
If 5 people vote "Let's drive off the cliff," 4 people vote "Let's go to McDonald's," and 3 people don't vote because they hate McDonald's, we all drive off the cliff and many of us die. You don't get to not be on the bus.
If the last 3 times the McDonalds faction's driver was in control, they drove right be mcdonalds after McDonalds without stopping, towards that cliff, you would conclude thd McDonalds faction needs to be purged of suicidal drivers if they want to represent not driving off the cliff to anybody.
