I've seen posts of yours on other threads, and all I have to say to you is that you keep on pretending that only the politicians you don't like are the corrupt ones; this is very naive.

It is equally naïve to pretend all politicians of all alignments are equally corrupt.

I never said they were equally corrupt. What I notice quite often, especially from people that are the most partisan, is that they will add things you never said because they think they are arguing with an imaginary person constructed in their head.

I never mentioned any particular politicians and was making a general observation that if you haven't had to deal with unsavoury characters, dishonest actors and quasi-crooks, you will lack the experience of how to deal with them. These people exist in all walks of life.

The person I was replying to was playing team sports, which I find tiresome, because every post about everything has to become about Trump or whoever the current villain of the week is. It is quite frankly moronic.

		There are a lot of assumptions in that general observation, right? Not just that you need experience in order to deal with these unsavoury/dishonest/crook characters. But that you even need to deal/compromise with them at all, that doing so would lead to a better outcome ...etc. And also not to mix up the other meaning of "dealing with". The biggest thing that the Student movement rallied around was dealing with previous government and various public and private sector corruption that it instigated/facilitated - in the bringing them to justice/rule of law sense.

		You JUST claimed they are more vulnerable to corruption. By the beginning of the thread. The whole thread started with you pointing at specific group and claiming they are nore vulnerable to corruption.
