We spent four years being treated as though we’re beneath being given information, that we’re just tools to be manipulated and dismissed. It’s soul crushing. It’s incredibly restorative to be acknowledged as having brains and the ability to comprehend, to be included, as the electorate should be, in at least what they can of what is actually being done.
