Rules
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage: lemmy.ca
The public's memory is immaterial. The public really has no long term power. Decisions are made for us by politicians and businesses.
They're the one's who need to remember that the US has threatened their positions.
Voting with your wallet doesn't make for sustained, long term change. It requires too much work, and it's umder constant attack by marketing.
If you had said short term I'd agree with you, it's all politicians, but over the long term public will has made a lot of changes the Lords of old would not have approved of. Getting reelected is hard and even safe seats aren't forever.
We do not live in a dictatorship, and we don't have to pay bribes to the local RCMP or say nice things about the Prime Minister like we would in a dictatorship. Hell, businesses can't even donate the same way as voters in Canada, all they really do is whine and threaten doom.
