A politian is an electedrepresentative. Their appointment depends on those who put their trust on them.
How politians managed to create a compulsory respect towards them evades me. The position they occupy is not theirs and, for what it counts, makes them the voters and state (as in, every citizen) servants.
It shouldn’t BE a position that demands respect, it should be viewed as public service. We are their boss, we pay them. (I mean, we used to pay them, before we decided to allow corporations to own politics, now whatever salary they get as a politician is pennies compared to what the lobbyists give them.)
If you look at political leaders and feel the need to use Midjourney to make a picture of them shirtless and muscular and oiled up while killing terrorists, you have a serious mental handicap.
My position is that no politician deserves respect.

Respect is earned not entitled.
