I don't want to be that guy but I feel like Americans and majority of the democratic World have forgotten that the laws they keep criticizing are the ones THEY voted for.

Protesting is fine but I never see voters take responsibility for their own bad choices. They are heavily influenced by so-called influencers and vote according to them instead of their own thinking. CA Prop 13 is something people of CA voted for. It is obviously working for majority of the people in CA. So whats the whining about? People of SF elected Boudin and are not signing enough recall petitions, surely its working for most people.

Democracy doesn't guarantee utopia, their will be some people mad about the system. But they have to accept they are in minority. There is no conspiracy, voters need to take responsibility for their own wrong choices first.
