Here it comes. This election is going to be full of bullshit like this.
Almost makes you wish we had a Federal Government that actually did its job, no?
Makes me wish we had an impartial Supreme Court instead of one purchased by billionaires.
We would have if Democrats had actually fought back against even ANY of this SCOTUS bullshit up till now.
Look, I'm voting blue and kind of excited about Harris but Democrats literally GAVE the repugnicans a supermajority by constantly shrugging and saying 'Well what can you do?'
Really the time to act was when SCOTUS illegally decided an election in 2000. There should have been massive strikes and riots.
FFFUUUUCKKK you had to remind me. I WAS a Floridian for that whole fiasco and it almost chased me away from politics forever. Yeah, Gore would have done a lot to prevent the shit we are in now.
Makes me wish we had a rational form of government instead of 7 fossilized cultists in robes.
How when close to half of it wants unironic fascist dictatorship?
The seditionists need to be removed, there are sitting Congressmen who actively supported the Jan6 coup. How can we have a functioning government when regressives just stew in their own shit and refuse everything?
I'm sure electing more people from the party who did nothing meaningful to stop fascism will accomplish the result you're looking for.
Either you are ridiculously ignorant of the fact that America is a 2 party system, or you are aware of this fact and are actively working to undermine confidence in literally the only non-fascist party with a chance at seating a POTUS.
In either case you are an odious person and I will be taking steps to ensure you never darken my internet experience again.
Ta.
The state seems to be serving the rich and privileged quite well as it was designed.
Elections are not the federal governments job you idiot
True but they have exercised power over them historically.
Remember the Voting Rights Act?
It's not just the election that's bullshit. It's the state in general.
