“That said, I am astonished at the people who shrug their shoulders and say “Eh. Nothing will happen. Let’s move on.” and imply that you are a patsy or simple because you do post it.”
That’s because the people you’re referring to are defeatists. They’re useless.
My impression, knowing at least some of their posting history, is that IMO, they are less defeatists and more frustrated with the process.
I share their frustration, that is for sure.
However, I guess for all intents and purposes, that may be a distinction without a difference.
