i think it's more that people are upset with him that he lets rishi's view go unchallenged within his own party, his own front bench, and even his policy proposals. so when he says "hey you shouldn't do that!" it looks very i think you should leave hot dog guy, the same goes for the media, of which unanimously posts things far worse than what rishi said today.
i've been trying to think of a way to convey this in a way which people will feel the sense of apolitical despair a trans person feels seeing this, a way which is hard to relate too for many here, and i think the closest i can think of is, you know when jeremy corbyn tried to explain his brexit policy? feels a bit like that.
the tories? they're bad guys, horrid, grim, bottom barrel, but then you look at the opposition and they're like "i voted remain!!!!!" and then outline policy which is leaving the eu. you feel a certain kind of despair.

How have we ended up with Sunak’s shit today - totally out of any sort of context, introduced because he wanted to - somehow being equally about Starmer?
Don’t get me wrong, Starmer isn’t great but I’m not sure his immediate response today to Sunak’s awfulness can be seen as being equivalent, would it have been better if he’d ignored and said nothing?
