"This amendment creates a narrow, commonsense check to ensure the pardon power is used fairly and responsibly regardless of who occupies the White House"
The comment was meant to show contrast between politicians who actually use their position to serve a community at all or in general vs politicians who use their positions purely to enrich themselves, often by defrauding their community.
Your statement detracts from the value and accuracy of their statement without adding anything of value to the discussion. And is thus a bad faith response.
Please try to be more productive with your responses in the future. And maybe actually take the time to listen to what others are saying rather than just looking for opportunities to get on your soapbox.
How can my statement “detract from the […] accuracy of their statement”? That makes no sense.
I will continue speaking out against the mythology of American exceptionalism regardless of whether or not you, or anyone else, approve of me doing so.
The point is that electoral politics have not delivered any meaningful, long-lasting wins to the populations typically ground under the wheels of America. All wins for those groups have been secured by other forms of action, and the reliance on electoral politics to act as a savior has enabled many of those wins to be degraded in recent decades. Suggesting otherwise is promoting mythology, not facts.
