    I’m not going to praise someone for doing something that should have and could have been done decades ago, no.

      Then why would anyone do anything good for you, ever? If you’re going to blame them for the fact that it wasn’t done before now, then shouldn’t they completely ignore what you want and move on to someone else?

        We should not do good things purely for the praise of others, we should do good things because they are the right thing to do.

          We’re talking about politicians who do things for votes. The whole system is predicated on popularity being the only thing that matters.

      So once the perfect moment has passed, might as well never try to catch up.

        The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best time is… fuck it, I’m just going to complain that there aren’t enough trees.
