Jesus Fucking Christ....Florida Got Hammered!

I do it by scrupulously voting against every republicunt I see.

You’ve never changed the outcome of a single election, you know

I don’t believe in voting so this is easy for me to say - the pollution released driving to the polls alone makes voting a part of the problem

If you didn’t drive then the paper the process of tallying your vote and

Yuck legitimizing our shit government by participating

I wish everyone would stop that shit

So what?  That's an excuse for voting for the scumbags?

Try armed revolution.  See how long it takes for the cops to gun you down.

Carter said we have the nuclear capacity to kill every person on the planet. Reagan said you’re weak minded we need more. Reagan won. I was young then but I concluded the proof was in the pudding. I’ve hated democracy ever since.

And if there was something redeeming about our system of checks and balances it’s fucked now. I don’t believe in it so I don’t participate.

Spare me.

Carter was right, Reagan won? So?

I hate to burst your bubble buddy, but as different as Carter and Reagan were economically speaking, I am quite sure both of them would tell you to spend some time in North Korea if you want to claim democracy doesn't work?

Is it difficult and fragile, yes. Can it be manipulated? Yes? But please, if it sucks so much please provide everyone here with a viable alternative that does not include oppression of dissent, and protects pluralism?

I always hate those on the left and right whom suggest an overthrow of government, AND I HAVE SEEN this on both sides in my 17 years of online debate, and I always find out, that they never think about the fact it isn't as simple as toppling the government. YOU STILL NEED  something to replace what you don't like. So if you don't like North Korea, and I hope you don't offer everyone here your version of what you think might work.

whom

You’re better off erring on the side of who

I think that’s the third time and it’s unbecoming

As for your question, uh, why are you on about North Korea?

We’re the ones that divided them up and split em with Russia like a piece of old juicy fruit. At the start of the Korean War the south was just as corrupt as the north but still we thwarted their attempt at unification. Then we isolated them by allying with Japan WHO just a decade or so earlier were occupying their country and raping their teenage girls and chopping off their grandmothers’ heads and shit. When they tried to exert their own identity we crushed them with sanctions and eventually isolated them so severely that a million of their people starved. But that’s cool because we VOTED for it. We voted for the war. We voted for the sanctions. We voted to keep military bases in Japan and South Korea constantly threatening them in their own neighborhood across the Pacific where we don’t even belong. We VOTED for all of it. It’s pretty ironic that a country that’s not even a democracy got fucked so hard by the vote! So how’s not being a democracy working out for them? Real shitty because we’re bigger and they’re not in our tribe and time and time again right up to the present we keep voting to fuck with them. Mob rules kind of sucks when the mob turns on you.

Not if it might hurt my feelings, no.
