The government is supposed to act in your interest, whether you voted for it or not.
Everyone has different interests and needs from the government, which is why you vote.
Someone who is against abortion will vote for an anti-abortion government. Someone who needs more social support will vote for a government who will fund them.
No government will satisfy the needs of everyone, unless everyone votes! That’s how democracy works.
You seem to be exercising a very concerted, propagandistic attempt at blaming protestors for being angry at their grievances not being addressed, and not a single word of criticism at the government facing the inevitable consequences of its lack of desire to answer to their citizenry, forcing citizenry into escalation.
Far from it. I’m against the use of violence against innocent people and communities, regardless of who causes it.
Governments have a role to represent the people. Unless they have permanent terms in office, the people should use their power to vote, use the court system, use effective forms of nondestructive protest, and form grassroots movements to support their needs.
