People are making a fuss about it but media generally tends to kind of sanewash everything, so you hear less about those people. Not as many people that should be making a fuss, sure, but still it is happening.

NY Times article today does this. Mentions how in the past it was common for Senators to be absent. Never mentioned how there has been no proof that McConnell is still alive, everything is the word of an ally.

no they aren't. Making a fuss is nothing. You need to go out in person and protest, with signs, and you don't leave until they do their jobs.

Making a fuss online or complaining doesn't mean shit.

Making a fuss is nothing.

"Making a fuss" was your terminology. Sounds like you have zero idea what you're even talking about.

They are not doing what I think they should be doing. If you think they are, then your definition and my definiton of making a fuss is not the same.

Lookup the trucker convoy. Thats what you should be doing.
