    No thanks. I’m done trying to explain it. I’m curious if others are having as much trouble understanding or if you’re being intentionally obtuse, but there is no other way to say what I’m trying to say. It’s complex and nuanced. There is no simple or concise way to say it. So I’m done here. Have a good one 👋

      I started out more confrontational tbh but then just got confused by what you meant and have been legitimately trying to figure it out, I’m not being intentionally obtuse.

      It seems pretty straightforward to me. If you’re enacting policy that improves society through whatever means available, then you’re actually governing, if you’re not doing that then you’re not. Very simple and straightforward terminology. Whatever distinction you’re drawing seems meaningless and arbitrary to me.
