It is so damn easy to recite a litany of your grievances but you give no solutions or replacements.

Just chop off their heads.

I would never follow someone like you because you are not a leader. You have no record of fighting for what you want. You are like a baby in a crib crying and whining wanting someone to fix what is bothering you.

You recite all you grievances out of context of what else was going on at the time.

No I won't listen to or follow someone like you.
