    I know this is a (mildly funny) joke but the broader cultural yearning for politicians to provide people with emotional support is kind of insidiouspic.twitter.com/Si6Z6RKVun

        The old saw that voters want to elect a president whom they'd like to share a beer with, always struck me as odd. I want a president who'll vigorously protect the Constitution and pursue long-term US interests. I don't value whether I could see him as my buddy.

        Haven’t politicians been proxies for the emotions of the people they govern for millennia? Seems like de facto emotional support has been part of the job description for quite some time.

        They give away power to above but perhaps want them to fix structural issues that create social ills, like loneliness Ironically I want a zine shop owner-turned-politician who is ‘friends’ with me on Facebook not to lay off my friends, and screw us structurally. Not friends tho!

        The same thing can be said for those who want politicians to give them everything for "free".
