The conservatives that you speak of? They are Liberals. Liberalism is the philosophy of private property, of the rights of property owners, of the merchant class. And what are Democrats? Oh look, also Liberals. The country isn’t like this because of voting. The country is like this because this is its foundation 70% of Americans are represented by 30% of the Senate. That’s by original design and 250 years later it’s not better. You literally cannot fix the Senate by voting. You certainly can’t fix the Senate by voting for a white petite bourgeois mercenary bigot misogynist.
The power center of the Democrat establishment is openly aligning with Trump administration rhetoric about leftists/socialists being a literal threat to our country, while the Trump administration just sentenced peaceful protestors to 50 years and more for distributing leftists literature.
If you think voting for people is going to fix this, well, at least I can say with confidence that they probably won’t be coming after you for being part of an effective resistance.
Oh also, I love that you think it’s whiny that I don’t think we should vote for a fascist mercenary with an obvious record of violence and lack of empathy for his victims and lack of analysis of the system and his part in it who thinks all he should have to do is briefly apologize and then we should all move on. That’s LITERALLY what the “conservatives” you talk about are doing daily. You think we should vote people who act like “conservatives” just because they have a D next to their name?
We’re watching what happens when you vote this way. Obama and Clinton destroyed Libya and changed the entire DHS/ICE apparatus into what Trump used to deploy them to US cities. Obama did that, he made it possible to deploy to US cities. He also deported 3 million people while Trump has barely hit half that. Oh. And Trump’s deportation czar for both of his terms? Obama appointee. Biden did nothing to stop Trump, created absolutely no barriers for Trump, and essentially only chose to use his discretion to make things better, which he knew would be rolled back as soon as an R took office.
You’re the one who is whining saying “Look at those people! They vote religiously and they keep winning! I want that! Please! You’re all so mean for not voting the way I think you should vote” meanwhile Hillary won the popular vote and we still got here, just like when Bush beat Gore. I’m not whining. I am crystal clear that voting D doesn’t do fuck all, and that the Ds are ramping up to participate in the third Red Scare just like they participated in the previous two Red Scares. I am crystal clear that the Ds support genocide, mass murder, military expansion, police expansion, prison expansion, police militarization, racist mass incarceration, collective punishment of dozens of countries resulting in 800k deaths annually, insider trading, the neutering of unions, and on and on.
That’s the longest whinge I’ve seen about this, thus far.
The problem with all of it is that Republican voters have proven all this whiny shit wrong by voting religiously.
Funny how they achieve it with low numbers, yet there’s a million excuses, including division which you highlight here again with your shit about LiB3RaLs, for the left not being able to achieve it.
Great story but it’s another long winded whine. Get out and vote. Every time.
If you get another shot that is. If not, it’s peaceful shutdown but start fucking doing the right thing. Prove Churchill wrong.
Until then you’re just a pack of whingers. Don’t expect the world to understand, you’re here because you couldn’t get off your arse and vote. Magical excuses around it doesn’t change it and your conservatives getting repeated results over a long time disproves any of this whinging.
Yeah, so you’re still wrong. The right wingers aren’t winning because they vote. They’re winning because the country was created for them to win. It’s the default state of the country. The right wingers don’t have nearly as much to do to win as the left does because the country is structureally organized for their policies to win. Again, 70% of the country is represented by 30% of the Senate. That means 70% of the Senate is voted in by only 30% of the country. You can’t fix that by voting. You’d have to empty out the major cities and distribute Democrat voters into every sparsely populated state of the Union and then you’d have to survive the gerrymandering. It’s literally impossible to achieve. The Senate was built to explicitly to be run by the minority of the country. It always has been, it always will be.
You think you can vote that away? Move to South Dakota.
Which only proves my point; those in the more populated areas who refuse to vote are letting their people down.
The fact remains, hardly better than 65% turn out at any time. Everywhere, Republicans compete not just because of the rural thing but because those in the larger areas don’t turn out.
It’s voting. Not only that, there’s a shitload of excuses for it that aren’t offered to other countries. We really are expected to show an understanding not afforded to other nations. Especially now the politics is being exported to us, people who aren’t involved in US elections.
It doesn’t prove your point at all. You have no idea what you’re talking about. If there was perfect voter turnout in all states, the Senate would still be overwhelmingly right wing. But we’ll never get perfect turnout because our politicians are all actively working to repress turnout. 21 million people in the US don’t have government issued photo IDs, and more than half of states require them to vote. Of all income brackets, almost half of the people making less than $20k/yr don’t vote, which says a lot about voting accessibility, transportation, education, and actual freedom to go to the polls instead of the various obligations we put on the poor.
Voting day is not a holiday in the US. Around the world, Sunday is the most common voting day. For the US it’s a Tuesday. People are forced to choose between stepping out of work and voting, and let me tell you in a country created by right wingers who understand how to maintain power if you think a right wing boss isn’t deliberately making it difficult for their black and brown people employees to vote, including docking pay and terminating them, then you don’t know what’s going on.
Only 7% of eligible voters say no candidate represents their views. Only 15% of eligible voters say they don’t vote because they don’t think it’ll matter.
I know you want to want to feel morally superior and berate people but the reality is that you are wrong
The sum of your argument, because it’s easy, it’s lazy and it hurts, I know
f there was near perfect turnout
You’d have vastly different governments than you have now and you’re a liar if you say otherwise. Jesus, you’ve got evidence in front of you for that one
21 million people don’t have IDs
And not all of them are prevented from that
which says a lot about…
It might, it’d also suggest a fair few aren’t willing
voting day is not a holiday in the US
And if US workers aren’t either building this on when they take the job, ignoring it, doing postal or absentee or finding a work around that’s on them; I would be. But you vote, if you can.
only 15% don’t vote by choice
That’s enough to bring the total vote to 80% or better. Thats a decent number. That’s genuinely enough.
I know you want
No, you know jack shit, your go to for me. I want the US and its people to thrive and rebuild their country, because a strong, morally standing US is good for the world. That I tell the truth about their issue and hold a mirror up doesn’t make me feel good, in fact I hate it.
You’d have vastly different governments than you have now and you’re a liar if you say otherwise. Jesus, you’ve got evidence in front of you for that one
Your ignorance makes you think I’m a liar. The evidence overwhelmingly demonstrates that a) popular opinion has ZERO effect on legislation passing and b) gerrymandering is more powerful than voting and always has been.
I want the US and its people to thrive and rebuild their country
Then you’re a fool. The US is a white supremacist, misogynist, mass murdering, global force of destruction. It’s the inheritor of the white supremacist ChristoFascist European empire that created your country through genocide and mass rape and torture. WHether the US thrives or not, it’s still a demon.
God you people are whiny
The conservatives have shown you how it’s done; vote religiously for who you want. They’ve proved for years it works too.
You owe your country the voting effort, it doesn’t have to earn that. Who you choose is earned but you get off your arse and vote
But keep making excuses.
The conservatives that you speak of? They are Liberals. Liberalism is the philosophy of private property, of the rights of property owners, of the merchant class. And what are Democrats?

That if you get out and vote in primaries and elections, you’ll get the people you want in.
Lmao. You think a broken United States is good for the current world and you’re calling me a fool?
Here we go, fuckin fart sniffing. Are you going to run when it goes down? Who the fuck would want you around?
