People generally recognize
that if something is broken you should try to fix it. Only in politics does that go out the window, instead becoming a declaration that “if you don’t
like it, you can leave.” It’s a lazy response, and a silly one, because the U.S. is a global presence involved in conflicts and with influence worldwide. Furthermore, my issues with the state are not solely personal. It is not just that I or people I love suffer; it is that people worldwide suffer because of its corruption and injustice, and I care about their well-being too. Where any one person lives does not change any of that.
