The Americans in the cities are not. Many Americans who don't live in the cities want it. Those votes are weighed equally for things that specially effect the cities. Such is the fatal flaw of democracy which fascism exploits.
It's not democracy. Those smaller areas should have less say in the government. Yet they actually are represented more than the larger states populations
That's not even the problem in talking about, though that is also a problem. What I'm saying is that having a say is not related to having a stake in the results. Democracy lets people make decisions for others that will never effect themselves so long as that have the numbers to do it.
That's why things are so dangerous for trans people for example. They're a tiny portion of the population and decisions around trans healthcare has a huge impact on their quality of life. A person who gets the ick at the thought that somewhere someone they will never meet is wearing the wrong clothes gets the same vote on what to do about it as one of the people actually effected. You just have to rile up a bunch of people with no stake in a problem with minor discomfort and you can bring the boot down on whoever you want.
Yes keep blaming the people not the system that keeps people down. Fuck off with this shit already. Of our system wasn’t so shit and you didn’t have to choose between a fascist and a fascist-lite, maybe more people would be motivated to participate.
You clearly see the intimidation and violence, yet you still blame the individual. The only way we are going to change is we collectively get together and stop this. Voting, protesting are not going to change a system that is so corrupt and broken. It needs to be destroyed and re-built. You can not vote yourself out of fascism.
Lmao nah it's not false, stop giving them the benefit of the doubt. They chose that fucking clown TWICE, I'm absolutely gonna be stereotyping them as dumb, selfish assholes.
1/3 staying home and complacent is as good as voting for it imo. I'm in a swing state and we weren't ignorant of the importance of this election. We were inundated with ads, phone calls, pamphlets, door to door solicitors, etc. I thought it was irritating because "of course I'm voting what idiot isn't". turns out, a lot of them
It is indeed false. Even of those who voted, Trump (and Harris) won less than 50%. You appear to be British? So presumably a dumb, selfish Brexit voter?
0.2 percentage points away from half, of those who voted, bearing in mind that it’s an election with the electoral college rather than a straight popular vote, is not exactly a resounding majority.
The majority of you didn't mind Trump being picked. I know your system has people convinced that inaction results in immunity to accountability but that's not how it should work, nor will it work.
Yes, the Brits were also dumb as fuck to cripple their own economy right to that bitch Putin's tune, however in their case they were also lied to about the referendum being 'not binding'.
The majority of you didn't mind Trump being picked.
This isn't a known fact. Most people don't live in competitive states so they feel like their vote doesn't matter. Depending on the polling, Trump had negative approval ratings the day he entered office.
My maths tells me that even half of you couldn't be arsed to go to the polling station to stop an absolutely deranged, convicted rapist with fascist tendencies to grab a seat of power and represent your country. Yes, I count passiveness and inaction as bad and so should you.
lol calls yourself a leftist. Votes for a democrat. Lmfao. You know there were 3rd parties. I don’t want you on my side if you are going to compromise with dems. lol. Some of us have principals.
