Okay, for sake of discussion let's say everyone who can vote does vote.
Why do you think that would improve things? The options are still A or B, and both options are pro-corporate police surveillance state.
Even if these voters elected ONLY Democrats, and all of those Democrats were "the good ones" (let's say they are New Deal Ds who are pro-union)...
The behemoth would still be there, doing it's thing. None of these elected reps would change this. There's a massive black budget that most elected reps will never, ever see.
Our political system has evolved to protect itself from interference, so it must be dismantled. All of it.
And there are international monsters exerting their will, too. It's a very big problem.
I don't give any nationality the benefit of the doubt, join us
Looks like you’re giving a brief and governed glance to the point of primaries.
Option A has better people.
Option A has now changed and yes, I said that, which as I also pointed out sets tge terms you have to fix it.
I assume by ‘behemoth’ you mean the capitalist influence problem. That’s why you put those people there, to legislate against that. You gave them a mandate. It takes time, it wouldn’t change overnight, but to assume that they wouldn’t is looking for excuses.
But the Republicans can elect theirs and they can make the changes they want. Okay.
More excuses for not trying.
Yes, and you only have three ways, outside voting in the people you want. The first is horrific, the second won’t happen from within and the third, the population won’t endure the hardship for.
This is what I mean by excuses and laziness.
It’s why nothing will be done and you’ll fall under it. You can’t even put trust in and take the easy option.
Laziness doesn’t just mean ‘won’t work physically for money’.
Pass
I was just kidding, we all know that your nation lives under the heavy yoke of the USA. If only you were brave enough to protest and vote properly and destroy it!
Oh well, until you do, the USA will gladly allow you to serve it for as long as you need.
I will never give your nation the benefit of the doubt again, I'm afraid. :(
Champ none of this offends me, but I get it.
I have.
I did. Every election.
Yeah? No shit Sherlock, it’s likely my government will follow you clowns, because of a fucking debt we owe over WW2. Not sure if you remember that cuntbucket, but we keep our word.
Do I like that? Nope, but it is what it is.
I don’t care. That neans more to you than us sunshine, I give you the drum.
Buddy, I'm not trying to offend you.
The only way you could find my post offensive is if it pertains to you. Whoopsie, I thought you were better than that!
I don't care that you don't care, Debbie Downer. Go sit in your corner and weep!
YOU MUST VOTE FOR THEM IT'S THE ONLY WAY
lmao that was fuckin terrible.
How trump was elected becomes clearer to me ever day.
I was trying an impression and lost control, but I am not a Trumper, apologies for the switcheroo
But, don't forget, he wasn't elected by voters. He was elected by media (unfathomable coverage because of high ratings) in the first election, and he was elected in the second because of that AND Kamala took a knee.
Yeah nah sorry for my part too. I can do better.
also with signficiant rigging from musk through his starlink, on the machines. something the DNC is unwilling to air out.
I thought all the billionaires on stage celebrating with Trump was fishy, who knew?
I'm kidding we all watched it in real time.
Meanwhile, the "liberal media" reports everything Trump 24 hours a day, great ratings! Biden's ratings were SHIT
Harris ran her campaign begging for Republican votes. So weird that she lost, what a winning strategy that has never, ever worked in the history of USA.
remember how there was news about musk knowing about the results ahead of time, something never picked by the news, and only mentioned on reddit once. my assumption DNC are just controlled opposition, its possible they knew or suspect it was rigged, and wanted her take the fall, they think they willhave enough ammo based on what trump is doing , to get elected for the next few elections, without changing much in thier strategies as a party. if you see how hakeem, schumer and dinos vote recently, it tells alot they are funded by the same people that also funds gop.
Harris campaign made over a billion dollars in a few months. Unprecedented.
Trump's campaign was at 900 million or so, after four years.
Harris campaign knew what would happen if they wasted months courting Rs instead of pursuing D and I votes, but they were very well compensated. How much under the table? We'll never know...
Some Ds mean well, but the leadership is long gone.
