It’s not a secret.
The Democratic Party has a lot of garbage, and has certainly stopped a lot of reform, while portraying themselves as the only party for reasonable people. They have managed to tap the energies of good people who think this is the only path they can take to help.
They have spent over a century squashing small political parties who could be a threat later. In later years they have been so successful at this that any opposition at all is viewed as almost treasonous.
But the worst thing they have done is not the above, or OP article. Their worst sin is helping to move the country away from paper ballots counted in front of human witnesses. And while there are some states that have good participation from mail in ballots, which is good. And a precious few who do ballots properly. The Democratic Party, as a whole, is utterly silent on the majority of states. Including states where they are the minority party.
They could not do this without the willful ignorance, despondency, intransigence and pig headedness of the majority of Americans.
I think these few generations of American voters will not be looked at kindly in the histories; it will be seen as totally weird by future historians.
Well, there is lobbying, and they are all corrupt, so what would we do?
Demand ballot counting like most the other democracies in the world have now.
It’s really foolish to think oneself a democracy but depend on vote counts that are not recounted or verified by humans , but left to a handful of private companies. Even if your state has ok counting, you still dependent on other states that don’t, to decide the federal government .
Americans have faith in a system they refuse to think much about, and would not understand if they did, because it’s hidden behind trade secrets. They naively assume such things are monitored by ethical experts, when no such checks exist.
Private companies determine your primaries and government, and they are not double checked. Most states flunk standard tests for ballot stuffing. And the exit polls are off by so much that the mainstream press stripped using them recently.
It’s just a weird complex system that is supported by faith
Appreciate that this was tagged as “conspiracy theories” because it partially is, but it’s also making worthwhile points. Advisors to the democratic party leadership have their own motives, and it’s all to do with dollar signs. Campaign finance was broken by moneyed interests, we let them create a world where half of all campaign spending comes from something like 0.1% of the electorate.
Exactly! The American Israel Public Affairs Committee donated 51.8 million dollars to the Democrats in 2024. How much of that was spent on advisors that they vetted?
They didn’t even have to tell her to support Israel’s “right to defend itself”, though they certainly did. Far more insidious, they could have told her all sorts of bad advice calculated to make her lose. Like that the “weird” thing was alienating voters and should be toned down. Then she loses while thinking she’s getting good advice, and they get Trump to declare war on Iran instead!
