    You are not a realist, you are a manifestation of cuckoldry within the liberal framework. A person saying “but what can one really do” while ignoring the systemic issue at the root of it all - capitalism, and the fact that no system that allows this sort of atrocity (around the world, not just in Gaza currently) should be allowed to exist in the first place. But that requires one to understand that the system must be torn down with a revolution, something liberals will never say - it is their system, after all.

      Exactly! You’ve very eloquently supported my argument.

      The choice posed to the realist in government is to either 1) play along and try to do some good along the way or 2) quit and help overthrow the system.
