• Because they do have power over you if you are beholden to them and it’s such a pain in the ass to sue to get what should be lawfully given to you, like benefits, unemployment etc. that a lot of the time they get away with doing a terrible job leaving vulnerable people stranded. Add to this that a lot of the poor, foreigners or simply overworked don’t know how to sue or don’t have the capacity to on top of all the other things they have going on at the same time to deal with all the bullshit bureaucrat throw their way and yeah I get why a lot of them are hated.

      Once again, they are paid to implement policy put in place by their political masters. They don’t any have room to maneuver.

      Don’t like the policy, sure, go after the people who arranged it. It’s like blowing up at a checkout chick at Walmart because management stopped sticking your favourite buttplug.

      i think nore that the reason they are hated is because capitalist told people to hate them since like forever. Capitalists dont want rules for their buiseness, it all just means less profit. not to mention that they need to keep the narrative alive that anyone working for any kind of goverment is instantly lazy ofc

      edit: and ofc it is always annoying to deal with it, since it is always a chore.
