And the elected ones aren’t even the worst of them. The system becomes so ossified that changing a representative is no more than scraping off an old bumper sticker and replacing it with a different one.
A fist up the bum is much more effective at getting them to do what you want. Oh, wait, looks like that position is already occupied. Pay no attention to the fist behind the apparatchiks.
Cartoon characters quite often have only four fingers, and so, no middle finger! Horrors. On the other hand—actually on both hands, ladies—you can be photoshopped into six-fingered crones; but then the even-number problem re-appears—no “middle” finger.
There are the variants you could try—the aforementioned British salute (but take care to get the direction correct), or the Greek moutza, involving all the fingers of one or even of both hands, plus the proper vocal accompaniment (minimally, “Nah!”).

@coltish1
I can separately wiggle all the toes on one foot, but none on the other, am I more/less evolved?
