It's no secret that I loathe politicos - not because they're dealing with politics, but because they're a bunch of lying plonkers who treat all countries like companies that they bleed for their own profit, and their pals'.
I'm trying to think of any Earth politico who's a leader, with guts and compassion, and I can't come up with a single name.
Why am I currently growling now?
Piece of cake: in a place where, for over a century, there's been a strong separation of State and churches, I'm now seeing one church pointing its bony finger at a State company that refused to promote an ad that was partly religious (and concerned one specific variety of religion). And, cherry on the icing on that cake, local politicos (some of them very high-ranking!) are taking the side of the church - a church that, incidentally was very meek in the 1940s, but that is making comparison of the inaction back then with what's going on now, and with what they're trying to prevent today (so, basically, they'll be loud, but only seventy years after the tragedy or if they're under attack themselves).

I'm not saying that the people the religious ones are trying to help should be abandoned to the wolves.
No.
I'm saying we must see beyond any religion and do something to help all those who are being currently massacred by demented bipeds. Religion, colour, or anything is irrelevant because all victims are fellow Earthlings and that's all that matters.
The churches (all in the same basket - again) should stop caring only about their brothers, and the politicos should stop doing election-marketing in order to pander to factions. We're all on the same planet, and when a group of plonkers blows a fuse, they should be stopped - not because they're attacking this or that group, but because that's the right thing to do.
We need global solidarity, not tribal divisions; otherwise, we'll regress as a species.

how do we know a politician is lieing? their breathing!
I think and have for years, that if you want to be a politician it should automatically bar you from the job! good folk should get voted in and do a limited time and then go back to real life.
It should never have become such a well-paid job. All the plonkers want a piece of the action...
One of the few honest (but not perfect) politicians I can think of gave all his political wages to charities, and he relied on other means of existence (his wife wasn't the happiest bunny about that, but she followed him bravely).
