      Yeah and there’s a third that didn’t vote. So that’s 2/3 of the US that’s too ignorant, too stupid, too lazy, or too greedy to oppose fascism.

          Pretty much the case. Even those on the left want to blame Democrats for the things Trump is doing. Like it should’ve been obvious in 2016 this guy shouldn’t be President. After Jan 6 he should’ve been thrown in prison. The US has become a country of whiny children crying about how mommy and daddy Democrats aren’t protecting them from the worst impulses created by the horrible culture the countries decayed into. Without realizing the reason you hate the Democratic party is because you’ve become a culture that hates democracy in general.

            this is a pretty brain dead take seeing as how the average voter can effect zero of those issues. this is such a complicated issue from pretty much every angle possible and with the knuckle dragger OC and now your knuckle dragging takes its really just not worth the effort to try to coerce some empathy out of anyone. youre making a lot of generalizations and honestly can get fucked lol

      Hell no I saw the polls at this point America has a national intelligence crisis. Probably why they need immigration to make up for the lack of intelligence.

        how is it not how democracy works? did i say percentage of the country’s voters? and if youre implying that democracy means majority gets power then youre not very well informed on american democracy bc america has the electoral college where even a majority of ppl voting a certain way could be not enough

          In most places the two are the same and assumed to be the same.

          I realize that this is not the case in USA and I also realize that America voting is very complicated

          What we then can agree on is that American democracy is not democratic witch maybe makes it even more depressing
